Spanish II
Build fluency in Spanish through stories.
Description
This class is meant to build fluency in Spanish through reading simple stories and listening to, creating, dramatizing, and retelling stories as a class. The phrases and verbs taught in this class are based on the 500 most frequent words in the language. Students will also learn a variety of grammatical concepts including present tense, past tenses, articles, infinitives, conditional tense, future tense, subjunctive, gerund, reflexive verbs, direct and indirect object pronouns, and verb conjugations within the context of stories. Focus will be on mastery and proficiency through repetition and stories. Homework will include reading and review exercises based on mini-stories to reinforce the vocabulary and structures of the language. We will read and discuss (in Spanish!) 4 mini-novels which include cultural aspects of native speaking countries. This class counts as a full credit in humanities/foreign language.
