SPA 311 is a community-based learning course grounded in the practice and theory of second language acquisition and foreign language pedagogy. Our weekly readings and student-led discussions will focus particularly on teaching Spanish to elementary school-aged children in the classroom setting. SPA 311 students will engage in the practice of teaching Spanish through contexts that focus on justice, equality, and community to elementary school children at Davidson K-8 School (DK-8) in the Davidson SK8S Program (Spanish in K-8 School). For the practicum, students will develop weekly lesson plans, post weekly reflections, observe peer teachers, and lead a grade-level team of SK8S volunteers and peer teachers.<\/p>\n

One of the goals of our course is to deepen our knowledge of diversity, race, and racism, as these issues affect all of today\u2019s youth. It is our responsibility as educators to become well-versed regarding all types of diversity so that we may guide young students in implicit and explicit ways using the study of the Spanish language and Spanish-speaking cultures as our vehicle.<\/p>\n
