Overview

   Topsfield’s Spanish program aims to enrich student’s awareness of the language and broaden our learner’s ability to understand diversity in a multi-cultural world. The cultural component is important and integrated in many ways throughout our curriculum.   In the primary grades, when students are most ready, speaking and listening skills are stressed as students develop an ear for the language.   As such, we work primarily with oral language rather than written texts.  In grades 4-5, we build on foundational skills and begin to develop student’s ability to read and write in the language in preparation for a more formal unit of study.
