Workshop topics include greetings, authentic conversational practice, home-school communication with and without an interpreter, and language learning strategies for all ages. The afternoon is filled with engaging small group workshops where participants acquire Spanish through folk art-making, Mexican bingo, compete in fun rounds of “Latino USA” trivia, and salsa dance. No prior knowledge of Spanish is necessary for this workshop.
Registration cost before April 5 is $200 and includes workshop materials, parking pass, certificate of completion and refreshment breaks. Registration after April 5 is $250. Attendees should bring $10 cash for lunch for the Spanish Emersion luncheon to be held at an authentic restaurant.
