Krystal Lugo Studied at University of Texas at Austin (Bachelor’s) and University of Texas at San Antonio (Master’s). From Lima – Perú. Spanish is my first language Five years teaching experience First year at RRHS MY WEBSITE: http://rrhsward.weebly.com/ ¡Bienvenidos! Spanish is a course designed to introduce students to the four language skills of communication: speaking, listening, reading, and writing, as well as the Hispanic culture. The students will make connections with other subject areas, will make comparisons with their own language and culture. Everyone will be encouraged to think and expected to speak in Spanish, rather than English. Students should spend considerable time studying at home to reinforce the daily class content. The amount of time that a student devotes to this subject will be directly proportional to the overall comprehension and acquisition of the Spanish Language and to the student’s success in the classroom. I have high expectations for students in this course! I also have high expectations for students to take the responsibility for their own learning…to take charge of their own progress and participation, and I give them major credit for taking that step! GRADE CATEGORIES & WEIGHT Major: Tests, Projects, Essays and Student Self Evaluation = 50% Minor: Classwork, Comprehension checks, Class work, Quizzes, = 50% Students are given the objectives we are focusing on each day as well as checkpoints to determine if they have met those objectives. They are posted when students walk into the classroom and know to begin writing them in their notebooks as soon as they enter the classroom. At the end of each class period or that evening, they are to reflect on their own progress and participation and score themselves. If they are at 80% or better, great job! Below 75%, they need to come in for tutorials asap! Their Self Evaluation of Progress and Participation may not vary from their overall score average more than +/- 5 points. lunes 8:15-8:55 martes 8:15-8:55 miércoles 8:15-8:55 jueves 8:15-8:55 viernes 8:15-8:55 Sra.
