educación española products:
From the Mountain Campus of Northern Arizona University comes an in-depth, lively series teaching the Spanish language. educación española was created
and is taught by R. Scott Morris,Ed. D. (señor Morris). The curriculum is for one
full year of instruction. Using a compare and contrast approach or L.A.D. (Language Acquisition Device), educación española emphasizes a grammatical analysis methodology towards Spanish instruction which targets students in junior high school and beyond. These elements include:
• verb tense and conjugation
• noun number and gender
• adjective-noun agreement
• sentence configuration
• cultural orientation
• and much more
Through insightful dialogues and traditional songs, señor Morris encourages oral production and class participation. educación española integrates cultural diversity into the lessons through the introduction of indigenous food, art, history, and geography of many Spanish-speaking countries such as Spain, Mexico, Paraguay, and Peru. Each lesson averages about 45 minutes in length.
educación española is a two-year curriculum. The first year (lessons 1-50) is required to be taken before the second year’s material. The second year (lessons 51-100) will be a continuation that builds on the foundation laid in the previous lessons and will be released in the near future.
The first year (50 lessons) will be broadcast on the DISH Network™ on The Universityhouse® Channel 9411. Please check our broadcast schedule for the most current broadcast dates and times. Best of all, the programs are FREE to DISH Network™ subscribers.
