= Fluency "The journey of 1,000 miles begins with the first step." -Lao Tzu = As a parent, you ask "How long will it take for my child to become fluent in Spanish?" (Great Question!) Take a look at the chart below from the US Dept of Language. It is a long road, but a very worthy one.




 * __Purpose__:** This site is for community members of Skinner North (family and __#|students__) to receive updates about projects, happenings and homework for each grade level in Spanish class and with ESL students.


 * __Homework__:** There is no required homework for Kinder through 3rd grade Spanish __#|class__. However, it helps a great deal to reinforce __#|learning at home__. Starting in 4th grade, students have formal assessments based on our current topic. I suggest practicing with files and links from this site for at least ** __15 minutes per day__ ** . Each week, __ #|students __ are given words/phrases/videos or songs to practice our weekly topic, listed under the grade level.
