This course meets UC/CSU (E) and District graduation requirements for Elective Credit. This course seeks to develop language skills—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—that apply in many subject areas rather than any single subject matter. The AP course includes the study of the Spanish-speaking countries, people and culture, inherent in the study of any language. Furthermore, the course will include a systematic review of the basic points of grammar and verb conjugations with emphasis on areas where Spanish and English conflict. The finer grammatical points that contribute to an increased ability to write and speak correctly with minimal interference from the English language will also be addressed. It is not mandatory for students to take the AP exam, however, students who choose to not take the exam will not be eligible to receive college credit for the course.
