Week One

Lesson 01 – The Magic Circle
Wednesday

Just like in English, Spanish sentences are made up of different parts-nouns, verbs, and phrases. In this course, you will learn how to glue those different parts together using a series of recipes. This first lesson will teach you the Magic Circle Recipe-a recipe so powerful that, by learning 200 vocabulary words, you will be able to say close to 150,000 sentences in Spanish. Learn a little, do a lot!

Lesson 02 – The ‘Hay’ Recipe
Friday

This lesson further explores the Magic Circle Recipe and a new one too: The Hay Recipe. Hay means “there is”/”there are”. Think of how many sentences you can say that start this way. You will also learn some fun Spanish phrases, and by the time you’re through, you will be creating more and more sentences.

Week Two

Lesson 03 – The Magic Circle & Hay Recipes
Wednesday

Now it’s time to combine the Magic Circle and Hay Recipes, but this lesson’s bigger goal is to learn to move quickly from one recipe to another. Fluency in Spanish is all about switching from one recipe to another. This lesson will help you get up to speed.

Lesson 04 – The ¿Dónde está? Recipe
Friday

In this lesson, you will move on to the third recipe, the ¿Dónde Está? Recipe. You will also learn more parts to the Magic Circle Recipe and lots more vocabulary. And you will take your first giant step toward Spanish fluency by learning everything you need to know to converse in a Spanish-speaking restaurant.

Week Three

Lesson 05 – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Wednesday

In this lesson, you will practice the three recipes previously introduced. You will also learn adjectives, numbers, and how to tell time in Spanish. And put on your track shoes because it’s time for a few speed drills to teach you how to respond quickly with your newly learned Spanish!

Lesson 06 – The Four Seasons
Friday

Since it’s a great start to any conversation, this lesson will teach you how to talk about the weather in Spanish. You will also learn about the seasons, the months of the year and the days of the week.

Week Four

Lesson 07 – On The Road
Wednesday

In this lesson, you will travel to a Spanish-speaking country. You will need to learn some travel-related vocabulary and fun phrases for your journey, so this lesson covers all that you need to know.

Lesson 08 – You ‘Tiene’ and I’ll ‘Tengo’
Friday

In this lesson, you will learn the fourth recipe, Tengo/Tiene, and a few related fun phrases. You will also learn to produce wh-questions-who, what, when, where and why? The major goal in this lesson will be to become quicker in using your four recipes and fun phrases.

Week Five

Lesson 09 – To Your Health!
Wednesday

Is there a doctor en la casa? This lesson will teach you how to discuss physical and mental health issues in Spanish. You will also learn how to identify different types of clothing and build your vocabulary.

Lesson 10 – The ‘Quiero/Quiere’ Recipe

The fifth recipe is Quiero/Quiere, which means “I want”/”you want”. That means you will learn how to share your wants and needs in everyday Spanish-speaking situations. In this this lesson, you will add a few reflexive verbs to your vocabulary.

Week Six

Lesson 11 – ¿Qué Hace Usted?
