Welcome or Bienvenidos to Spanish Class! Spanish is offered to all students K-8 at St. Catherine's School. Elementary classes are introduced to the Spanish language through the songs, visuals, and videos. Instructional techniques to meet the needs of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners are employed in Spanish class. Special emphasis is placed on the Spanish alphabet, conversational vocabulary, the basics of spelling, reading, and grammar.
