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…

ADULT CLASSES for free have concluded for the year. It was my pleasure to work with community members of Mountlake Terrace, and beyond.
**Thank you for the opportunity you gave me to get to know district patrons and parents better; to expose you to TPRS- a 100% comprehensible method of second language acquisition that we use in the World Language Department of Mountlake Terrace High School; and to share the wonderful culture and language of so many of our district patrons with you. I regret I won't be able to offer another group class this spring. Contact me for more information, or if you are interested in individual tutoring options.

Spanish 3, 5º period Rodolfo: Rodolfo 6 The Running Dictation Game had MANY flaws... cell phones to copy text....not all students were runners as directed.... behavior proglems resulting in pagame's during class .... music technology that would not work... missing files on portable drive taking up our time. We will try the game again. This time we will spend more time in class after the dictation to review the text for the game as a group. I expect every one to contribute orally to the storytelling.

the chapter. Thursday, 3-4, work in class was over p. 27. In groups of 2, you drew pictures of Strip Story 1 (opcional). You are to have that drawing with you on Monday, so that you can use it for more partner work (=10 points). |
As of Monday, Sept. 28, all classes are now beginning to learn vocabulary from the Blaine Ray series of books: "Look, I Can Talk." Look I Can Talk More." and Look I'm Still Talking." Until further notice, you should ALWAYS have previous handouts with you and you should NEVER through handouts away that I make for you until the end of the year. Consider all that I give you as your textbook. Coming to class without text is not participating correctly, and results in a loss of participation points.

WHY READ BLOGS WRITTEN IN OTHER COUNTRIES??
- To read a blog written by a girl just a couple years older than you, from Spokane, who just moved to El Salvador to live with her dad for a year, log on to:
- www.blogitajuanita.blogspot.com
You will learn alot about her contact with the Salvadorian culture that she is not used to, about her immersion in to the language again, and about her relationship with a dad that she only sees once every few years. The last time she lived in El Salvador she was only 10 years old.
