Student reasoning and opinion are encouraged through discussion and debate. The Fifth Grade Spanish program is sequential leading to the development of communicative proficiency in one language other than English. The emphasis is on communication through skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing. Reading and writing are incorporated as extensions of oral language and past experience. Students communicate through acquired words, sentences, and idiomatic expressions within a context.
Students recite key Bible verses.
Classes are held daily. Choir Students are given the opportunity to develop vocal skills and musical potential. Choir members are taught proper posture, breathing techniques, diction, rhythmic precision, dynamics, balance and musical expression. Much effort also goes into developing intonation and singing on pitch. Each choir is given performance opportunities at Chapel, the annual Christmas program, our spring musical, singing in our community and performing for festivals or competitions.
