Classmate gray, a lot of the students for students I had worked with before so they were familiar with me was also familiar with the school and they're set up for after-school enrichment which made things a lot easier. The students were lovely and it was great to have the school staff available in case anything happened. I felt very supported from the school.
In this class students, practice, basic, greetings and shapes. And it was a very brief introduction into what we will be doing in Spanish. We sang a Spanish nursery. Rhyme together and students made a Mexican mirror using paper plates, aluminum foil and drawing shapes and coloring them around the around their place.

I think the cost went well I think at this point in the school year the students know me really well they know kind of my classroom management strategies and we work well together. They feel like they trust me and they're having fun in the classes.
In this class students, practice emotion words in Spanish, they practice responding to basic greetings, and also, practice asking Central questions, such as can I may, I and can go to the bathroom. Students did gross motor activity and also some written word for practice.
