¡Hola!
Click here to learn more about our Elementary Spanish program: Welcome video


We look forward to a great year with your child!

¡Bienvenidos!- Welcome!

Welcome to Spanish at the Elementary School. This year our Spanish classes are taught by Señora Lisa Schauer, Señora Hilary Smith, and Señorita Barbara Danver.

• This is Señora Schauer’s 12^th year at IHES. She has taught Spanish for eleven years and has also taught 5^th grade, 4^th grade Science, and technology at IHES. Señora Schauer teaches all 3 grade levels at the ES. She loves to read and spend time with her husband, their two children, and their two dogs.
• Señora Smith has taught 6^th-8^th grades Spanish at IHMS for the past eight years. She will be teaching 5^th grade at the ES this year, as well as continuing her work with the 7th and 8th graders. Señora Smith enjoys running and spending time outside with her husband and two children.
• This is Señorita Danver’s second year at Indian Hill. She teaches 1^st and 2^nd grade Spanish at the Primary School, as well as some of the 4^th grade classes at the Elementary School. Señorita Danver likes to cook, read, and spend time outdoors.

We feel our students are incredibly fortunate to be exposed to a world language at a young age. As a department, our philosophy is that the best way to learn a world language is through continued opportunities to hear, see, and speak the language. For this reason, our classes are conducted 95% in Spanish. Emphasis is placed on comprehension and fostering the continued development of the four language skills (listening, reading, writing, and speaking). Our additional goals are to acquaint the children with another language, broaden their cultural awareness, and create an interest in world language study.

Please fill out the online Parent Contact Form by clicking here. Feel free to contact us at any time with any questions or concerns. We are looking forward to an exciting and successful year!

3rd grade stories

We have read and acted out many stories this year.  Third graders re-read many of these stories,  changed one of them, and then created a project to show their new version.  (Some students even wrote their own, original stories.)  Below are some of their stories.

El Bebé y La Gatita   por: Addy y Ava  (3D)

La Gatita Quiere Chocolate  por: Celeste y Sig    (3L)

    

El Monstruo Quiere Chocolate  por: Hannah y Ella    (3J)

El Bebé Baila  por: Luis y Nick    (3Mo)

La Jirafa Quiere Torta   por: Izzy y Ninah   (3-O)

   

 

El Monstruo del Oceano Pacifico     por: Elsa  (3Se)

¡Libre Soy!

When songs are changed into another language, the lyrics often change to match the true meaning of the song.  Sometimes the lyrics change, also, to match the music.

Watch & enjoy! :)

Let it Go = Libre Soy
