¿Por qué aprendemos español? Why do we learn Spanish?
I've compiled a list of "My 5 Whys!"
Communication! There are 2.8 million Spanish speakers in New York State alone! When we learn Spanish, we can more easily learn about and communite with these Spanish speakers!
Job Opportunities! Bilingual speakers are more competitive in the workplace. When we learn Spanish, we are able to create lots of opportunities for ourselves!
Brain Benefits! Multi-tasking, memory, and improvement in first language. When we learn Spanish, we improve all of these brain functions!
Culture! When we learn Spanish, we learn about the customs and pratices of countless other countries...and we can learn more about our own culture in the process!
Open new doors! Travel, adventure, learning, friendship, opportunity, and even more! When we learn Spanish, we open up a whole new perspective on life that is waiting to be explored!
I am excited to begin this Spanish speaking journey with you! Remember - all homework and assignments will be posted on our Google Classroom.
