WELCOME! I'm so glad to
have you in Spanish class. We will be using TPRS® (Teaching Proficiency through Reading and Storytelling, originated by Blaine Ray) in our class: TPRS is a powerful teaching methodology that is based on proven techniques and sound pedagogy. An input-based methodology, TPRS focuses on specific activities and techniques that expose the learner to an abundance of authentic language in a condensed period of time. It simulates a hybrid immersion experience by eliminating its flaws- INcomprehensible input and excessive amounts of time- while maintaining the powerfully effective aspects of an immersion experience: context, comprehensible messages, natural and useful language and a great deal of repetition (Carol Gaab, 2009). Want more detailed information about the method? Read on at the links below… For adults
interested in TPR Storytelling, follow these links to read about
this amazing method of language learning:

Feel free to invite your friends, but no kids under 16 please.

Story and Quiz is in
process Nov 10-Tuesday
Titulo: cuento de TS Hay una chica que se llama Taylor Swift. Ella es muy pobre.
Ella está triste porque no tiene dinero. Va al crucero de
cantantes. Ella no canta porque está sucia. Está
sucia porque no tiene un baño. Sin (w/out) un baño, no puede bañarse.
¿Cómo consigue (get)
dinero ella.?
Taylor canta en el baño al lado de la clase de
español en MTHS. Cuando canta, ella consigue dinero por su
gato, que se llama Sandipe. Sandipe hace una colecta bastante bien.
Él colecta dos millones, tres mil, y un centavo cuando hace
la colecta. El dinero es bastante por el resto de su vida.
Después, ella da un poco dinero a la clase del
período seis porque Taylor no quiere ofender a una clase tan
generosa a quien no la molesta cuando cantó
ella.
