Use the state standards and curriculum to create a rigorous, objective-driven, arts-infused Spanish program.

Differentiate for individual students based on their unique learning needs so all students are appropriately engaged and challenged.

Ensure students are engaged through activities and technology that accommodate various learning styles, personality styles, and the need for physical movement.

Collaborate with classroom teachers to create interdisciplinary units that teach grade level content knowledge and skills through Spanish.

Explicitly introduce learning objectives to activate student’s prior knowledge as it relates to the objectives, and conclude the lesson by revisiting the learning objective and having students apply it in context.

Present content through a variety of instructional strategies to reach all learners.

Provide many and varied opportunities for students to achieve mastery while working to promote achievement by all students without exception.

Measure student achievement of, and progress toward, the learning objectives and big goals with formative and summative assessment tools.

Provide ongoing and timely feedback to students on their progress towards meeting big goals by frequently checking for understanding and listening.

Use data to reflect on effectiveness of lessons and student achievement progress in order to improve instruction and personal practice.

Create a focused environment of fairness and respect that encourages students to take risks and strive to reach goals.

Establish, model, practice, and reinforce age-appropriate rules and logical consequences; create and consistently use individual behavioral management plans, as needed.

Implement classroom procedures, systems, and routines that provide structure for students and maximize instructional time.
