Welcome

!Bienvenidos a un ano nuevo en la clase del Senor Johnson!

We have been working the first two weeks on the study of the alphabet as well as common objects and places in the school and classroom. 
Students also have completed their first project, a themed alphabet book using newly discovered words as well as indefinite articles.

Students will be bringing to class blank maps of Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean, as well as a map of South America. We will begin studying the location of the Spanish speaking countries as well as their capitals.

Maps can be found at

and

Students have been encouraged to purchase a Spanish/English dictionary if one is not already in the home. As first year students of Spanish, it will be an important tool for them now as well as in their future studies of Spanish at Point Loma.
I look forward to seeing parents and guardians at the Back to School Night on September 27th.
