Spanish is a fun and exciting language to learn. The curriculum is based on James Asher's Total Physical Response (TPR) and a wide variety of topics: culture, spoken language, written language and reading the language.

Lower grades focus on the spoken language as well as culture. There are set themes implemented so that students learn a variety of topics; for example: animals, family, jobs, etc. Higher grades experience spoken, written and reading the language. The students learn vocabulary and then take it to the next level by reading and writing it.

An important part of the curriculum is religion. Students learn how to say the Hail Mary, Our Father, Sign of the Cross, and many other important prayers in Spanish. Students also learn about important religious figures and religious themes such as Our Lady of Guadalupe, La Navidad, Cinco de Mayo, Posadas etc.

Our goal at Saint Kilian Parish School is to provide a meaningful and exciting language experience so that our students continue their Spanish knowledge and learning for many years.
