Spanish II - L1

In Spanish II students will continue to engage in a variety of paired and group communicative activities. These oral/aural exercises will focus on the students’ ability to both send messages and comprehend the feedback they receive from both the teacher and their peers.  Some of the thematic units  include the following: the house and chores, daily routine, food, restaurants, parties and celebrations, personal relationships and stages of life, technology and health. The students will expand their understanding of the basic aspects of the structure of the language through communicative activities, observations, and analysis. In addition, through the study of the attitudes, values and beliefs that frame the cultural practices or behaviors of the Spanish-speaking world, students will gain a deeper understanding of why they think, live, and behave as they do. Internet, videos, and an online textbook accompany the course.
