Dear Students, Parents, and Guardians,

Hello and welcome to Spanish class! My name is Mrs. Maini and I will be your teacher. I would like to take this chance to let you know how happy I am to be teaching you Spanish this year. Acquiring a foreign language has many benefits.  The purpose of this course is to help you acquire a second language. You will do so by learning and using four skills – listening, reading, writing, and speaking. After the first day of class, I will use very little English in my instruction in the upper grades. It is not uncommon to feel a bit overwhelmed at first, but RELAX and give it a chance! You will be amazed at how much you will understand! I am 
looking forward to a very successful year.
