Spanish III

Suggested Age

15-18

Process

The Spanish 3 course builds on the principles taught in Spanish 2 and is designed for one full high school foreign language credit. Using En Marcha! from Prentice Hall, logical groupings of grammar concepts develop functional language skills, contextual practice exercises support real-life communication and creative speaking and writing activities to reinforce grammar all combine to create a curriculum with the essentials necessary to succeed in upper-level Spanish. In addition to the review provided by En Marcha!, students will read through the Narnia series in Spanish with the goal of expanding language skills and vocabulary. Post reading assignments will expand the students use and mastery of the Spanish language. The 90 minute class will enable the student to complete approximately 4-5 hours of work at home consisting of extensive reading, vocabulary building, grammar review exercises and essays. Daily work and class participation are essential for success in the class.
