to teach spanish in DECEMBER, Follow Steps 1 and 2

1. First, download and print off the Weekly 4-Point Checklist. As you prepare your Spanish lesson for December, the checklist will help you.  
Weekly ​4-Point Checklist
​2. Second, you are ready to plan your Spanish lessons for December.  You will use the Digital Lessons and the Easy Review Activities to help you prepare and teach your Spanish lesson every week.  There will always be more activities included than you will have time to teach so I recommend that:

                                        Toddler teachers, plan and teach one 15 minute Spanish per week
                          Preschool teachers, plan and teach one 30-minute Spanish lesson per week


*If you are new to teaching Spanish, it's okay to teach the same lesson every week throughout the month. When you feel that you and your students are ready, add additional activities to your Spanish lesson. For extra guidance, refer to the
 "Bonus Training Lesson: How to Plan Your Spanish Lessons". (See below). 

Parent newsletters

The Spanish in Deceber Parent Newsletters are included below.  You can send home a parent newsletter once a month or every week. Simply copy and paste the done-for-you newsletters into the body of an email. Edit or change anything you like before emailing it home to parents. ​

1 Monthly newsletter:

4 weekly newsletters:

Bulletin board visuals

Have fun decorating your Spanish bulletin boards with the December visuals. Use the visuals that represent what you think you will be teaching this month. The visuals will help showcase to students, staff, and parents that Spanish is alive and thriving at your  center! Woo-hoo!

SHARE YOUR DSA STORY! 
Every time we get your WINS  AND SUCCESSES in our inbox, we can’t help but do a little happy dance — to "Don't Stop Believing" or "La Bamba" of course!

Why? Because success doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Your wins are our wins, and they’re proof for others that when you do the work, you get results. 

Whether your students are finally beginning to repeat or sing in Spanish along with the digital lessons,  or say words in Spanish during the day, or teachers are feeling more confident carrying out the Easy Review Activities, or parents are sharing that their child is speaking Spanish at home — we want to hear your wins BIG and small!
​

Celebrating you always,
Theresa & Team HOLA
