    Description
    This class gives students the opportunity to teach basic Spanish weekly in two local elementary schools. Students will participate in weekly seminars and explore how children learn and develop understanding in Spanish. Working with a peer partner or partners, students will prepare lesson plans and develop curriculum. Students will work in elementary school classes in Solano County to provide language instruction based on the developed lesson plans. The Spanish (Castilian) language has been a key instrument of imperialism. We will explore accompanying issues of power as they relate to race, ethnicity, class, gender, and language.
