Spanish 1 and 2

Description

Spanish 3 immerses learners into the rich diversity of Hispanic culture across the globe. Students are invited to explore the tastes, sights, and sounds of a very dynamic language—a language reflective of triumph, struggle, celebration, religion, and so much more.

Prepare to take a cultural journey while improving conversational, vocabulary, and writing skills through authentic tasks. Short of obtaining a passport, there is no better way to discover new lands, peoples, or experiences. Nor is there a more compelling way to take your Spanish language abilities to the next level.

Assessments can be in the form of practice lessons, multiple choice questions, writing assignments, projects, research papers, oral assessments, and discussions. This course will use the state-approved grading scale. Each course contains a mandatory final exam or culminating project that will be weighted at 20% of the student’s overall grade.***
