Goals of the Workshop:Expose teachers to new, in-depth cultural content.Equip teachers with new pedagogical strategies to teach pronunciation.Grant teachers the opportunity to apply and integrate their new content and pedagogical knowledge to the (re)design of a unit or lesson plan.Main Morning Activities:Pronunciation WorkshopThere are three essential “ingredients” in order to learn to pronounce Spanish (or any new language):Perception: You have to notice the differences between your native language(s) and SpanishConfidence: You have to be willing to practice this new physical skill (even though it may feel and sound weird)Motivation: You have to keep practicing in order to develop this skillIn the pronunciation workshop, we will explore a variety of techniques to develop students’ perception, confidence, and motivation when pronouncing Spanish. These will include mapping movements of the vocal tract to larger bodily movements, using the language of street vendors as a context to perform the language, and others. In-depth Culture LessonWhen it comes to teaching culture, we often don’t know what we don’t know. In the Latin America in the K-12 Classroom Workshop, we leave this to the experts. A researcher affiliated with the Center for Latin American studies will present on a topic in their area of expertise. Main Afternoon Activity:Lesson Plan SessionOne of the most effective ways to learn and retain new knowledge is to apply it.
