Welcome to Spanish

Señora Radchik

The Gillispie School’s Spanish program provides students with a strong foundation in basic conversational Spanish. Building vocabulary and improving reading, writing and pronunciation skills as well as expanding cultural awareness are components of the program.

In the early grades (Pre K - 2), songs, rhymes and role- playing are used to build Spanish-speaking skills. There is minimal writing at this level.

In grades 3-6, Spanish grammar is introduced. Textbooks and computers are used to assist with writing and reading in Spanish.

Projects and cultural/country studies promote enthusiasm for the Spanish language and Spanish cultures.
