Spanish Language and Culture Enrichment

Ms. Werthmann, Ms/ Howee, Ms. Dranoff
 Hello and Welcome to the Spanish Department Blog

          There are a variety of ways students may enrich their Spanish language learning as well as their cultural knowledge.  If you have the opportunity explore Spanish where it may be used!

•   radio
•  television programs
•  chat forums
•  in music 
• on public announcements 
• on food labels
•  in newspapers
•  in School District of Philadelphia letters/pamphlets 

           Furthermore, Mastbaum uses a textbook series called Asi Se Dice for Spanish Level 1 and 2 students. This textbook series is published by McGraw Hill and can be accessed through the student portal by clicking the red and white Mc Graw Hill icon. The blue textbooks are for Spanish 1 level students and red textbooks are for Spanish 2 students. I invite you to explore this series. https://connected.mcgraw-hill.com/connected/dashboard.do
