This course is designed to enable students to begin to communicate with native Spanish speakers. Students will use simple language and read age-and language-appropriate passages for various purposes. They will explore aspects of the culture of countries where Spanish is spoken, including social customs and the arts, by participating in cultural events and activities involving both print and technological resources.
This course provides opportunities for students to increase their competence and confidence in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in the language of study. Students will communicate about academic and personally relevant topics in increasingly spontaneous spoken interactions, and will develop their creative and critical thinking skills through exploring and responding to a variety of oral and written texts. Students will continue to enrich their understanding and appreciation of diverse communities in regions of the world where the language is spoken. They will also investigate personal and professional contexts in which knowledge of the language is required, and develop the skills necessary for lifelong language learning.
