Come and visit us!There are many opportunities to be part of the Captain Spanish program.
1. Observe a class
Send me an email at loriemadriz@claytonschools.net if you are interested in observing a 30 minute Spanish class. You may observe your own child's class or any other grade level that interests you. Please sign in with Patti Davidson at the front desk before coming down to see us.
2. Volunteer
Throughout the year, we have many opportunities for parents to come in and volunteer their time. This may include helping with cooking projects:
*1st Grade: Tropical fruits tasting as part of our fruits unit.*2nd Grade: Handmade corn tortillas as part of our unit on Mexico.*3rd Grade: Empanadas as part of our unit on Argentina.*4th Grade: Tapas tasting as a part of our unit on Spain.*5th Grade: Mexican Sugar Skulls to celebrate Day of the Dead.*Students in 4th and 5th grade do not have cooking projects. Instead, they have the opportunity to taste food from the region(s) they are studying, prepared in advance by me.
or talking to students about places you've been. Parent presentations can be a powerful way for students to connect with the far-away places that they study at school. Culture units by grade level:
* A survey of all Spanish-speaking countries.
* : Mexico.
* 1st Grade:2nd Grade3rd Grade: South America, with a focus on Argentina.
* Spain as well as its surrounding islands.
* : Central America and the Caribbean.
