Kris Murphy
Spanish Teacher
I have been teaching at Sacred Heart for eight years, and I love speaking Spanish with the students! When I'm not in the classroom, you will probably find me at the rink or the ball field! Going for walks, traveling, and being with my family are a few of my favorite things!

Welcome to Spanish at Sacred Heart!
I'm excited to continue this adventure and share my love of the Spanish language with my students!
Did you know:
*The US has over 42 million native Spanish speakers! By 2050 it will be the largest Spanish-speaking country in the world!
*Spanish is the second most studied language in the world! In 2017, the number of people studying Spanish as a second language was more than 21 million!
*Mexico contains the largest number of Spanish speakers, with 124 million. The US is fifth, with over 42 million speakers.
A few more fun facts...
Spanish is the:
*Official language of 22 countries
*Second largest native language in the world
*Second language used for international communication
*Third most used language on the internet!
Classes at Sacred Heart will be a strong introduction of the Spanish language for students and their future studies in high school and beyond. Students will focus on speaking, writing, reading and communicating. We will sing songs, play games, read books, use text books, have homework, do projects and have quizzes & exams. It will be a great year!
