Spanish 1
Expectations:
Learning a foreign language can be fun, but it also takes serious effort. My expectations will be high. I expect students to be able to listen closely to directions, keep up with assignments, study, and to keep an organized eNotebook. I expect students to follow the rules of my classroom and Wade Hampton's policies found in the Student Handbook.
**This is a high school level course. Copying from other students' work, using online translators for writing assignments, cheating during tests/quizzes will result in a 0 and a referral. Please be mindful and think about the integrity of your reputation as a Wade Hampton student!
Course Description:
Spanish 1 is designed to prepare students to function at beginning levels of proficiency in a variety of authentic situations. Consistent with the SC state framework for modern languages, emphasis will be placed on:
communicating in the target language

learning to use the target language within our school community and the broader regional and global communication
