Dear Parents / Guardians and Students,
¡Bienvenidos! I’m excited to work with you this semester at Broome High School as we begin building (or continue building) proficiency in Spanish.
We are a diverse group of students this semester. I'm pretty sure I have students in all grade levels. Some of you are brand new to Spanish, and I see a few familiar names on my rosters that had Spanish as a middle school elective at Clifdale! If you have more experience in Spanish or another language (like speaking Spanish outside the classroom) please let me know tomorrow!
Regardless of background, our goal is to grow toward Novice High proficiency in Spanish. The syllabus explains this in more detail. I've opted to not print a hard copy for each student this semester. I believe uploading it to Schoology and providing the link means you'll always have access to it, we won't need to use a ream of paper for just the syllabus, and everyone can access the links in the document. If you would like a hard copy, please let me know.
Here's the direct link: https://wilkins.dropmark.com/2061480/37224469
We will use wilkins.dropmark.com regularly for weekly outlines, vocabulary, videos, and class resources. Because the Dropmark site is open, students and families can easily check class materials from any device. No student or personal information is ever posted there.
Please bring these materials tomorrow:
- A notebook or binder for notes
- Something to write with
- A charged laptop (and your charger, ¡por favor!)
Email is the best way to contact me: jowilkins@spartanburg3.org.
¡Manos a la obra!
Mr. Wilkins
