Spanish Dictionary- all grades
Conjugation- Grades 5-7

Ms. Heather teaches Spanish to all students from Pre-K4 to 7^th grade.  Her goal is to have the students communicating in Spanish as soon as possible.   The students in grades 5-7 will learn pronunciation, spelling, grammar and conjugation of verbs.  With the knowledge gained at OLPH, the students should be successful in high school Spanish.  FYI, in order to graduate high school a student must take two consecutive years of a foreign language.
