1. Hi everyone! I'm Andrea Picente and am a Spanish teacher at Fairport High School. I teach 10th and 11th grade Spanish - Levels 2, 3, & 4.
2. I would rank my students' average engagement as a 7 - 9. I try to incorporate interactive games as often as possible or have students work in groups/ pairs to practice with the vocabulary and grammar that we are learning in class. Students are usually highly engaged in these activities.
3. Three largest contributors to student disengagement:
- Lack of interest in the lesson topic
- Lack of understanding of the content (when students do not feel successful with the material, they tend to shut down and disengage)
- Lack of interaction with the material and their peers
