The ppt used for a session with parents at Route 39 Academy as they look to best support their young learners develop their Spanish

1. Work with a partner
1) Get a drink!
2) Write a list ON THE TABLECLOTH of the Spanish
words that you can understand + what you think the
English is next to it
e.g. violencia = violence
3) Can you spot any patterns- how do we change some
English words to make them Spanish (-ión / -dad /
-mente)?
4) Can you predict what the students will be learning
this term?
Welcome to the Route 39
