Faculty/Staff Spotlight
This week's Faculty Spotlight highlights Spanish teacher, Ms. Jones. Ms. Jones’ Spanish I students were tasked with introducing themselves to the class and giving information about where they are from, their age, likes and dislikes and their family. Many students are intimidated to speak in front of the class in English, but having to do this in a new language is even more intimidating. The strong classroom community was evident, however, as students encouraged each other, actively listened to presentations, and cheered for their peers after each presentation. Ms. Jones awards two “students of the month” per class period, and these awards are highly sought-after. Creating an environment where students feel comfortable is key to language acquisition, and Ms. Jones strives to make her classroom a place where students feel included and supported by the teacher and peers.
Thank you, Ms. Jones for creating memorable learning experiences for our students.
