“It’s wonderful that the older kids are getting involved with the preschoolers,” says preschool teacher Susan Dugan.
All four of Señora Donnell’s Spanish I classes had the opportunity to help the preschoolers with learning a new language. The extra credit project was creating a Spanish alphabet book.
“I thought it would be neat to make picture alphabet books for the children at the daycare,” says Spanish teacher Señora Donnell. Currently the preschoolers are learning letters and doing different activities to help prepare them for kindergarten.
“Right now is actually one of the best times [for them] to learn a new language,” Señora Donnell adds. After the freshmen completed their books, she had them laminated and took them to the teachers to choose the ones they wanted for their classrooms.
“I love it,” Ms. Dugan stated. These books will be the first at this location to introduce another language. Sister corporations have already started teaching Spanish since they have Hispanic parents with an interest in being a part of their classes. As for the preschool at the end of third hall, having the high schoolers help out is a real pleasure.
