Spanish 2

Note: Many of this course’s matierials and activities require a Windows or Mac PC to access. Devices such as Chromebooks or iPads will not work.

Students receive additional grounding in grammar and vocabulary in this two-semester course. Instructional material encourages students to build conversational and reading skills to cover many common situations in daily life. Like Spanish 1, this follow-up course adheres to the standards of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). Learning activities in each unit are focused on a specific theme. The units for both semesters cover a broad range of useful everyday subjects, including daily routine, animals, entertainment, body parts, rooms and furniture, shopping and clothing, meals, sports and recreation, and transportation. Students must successfully complete Spanish I in order to enroll in this course.

This course is a continuation of a beginning level course that will introduce the student to a variety of areas of language learning. In this course, the student will learn listening, speaking, reading and writing skills through activities that are based on pedagogically proven methods of foreign language instruction. Throughout the units students learn to express themselves using an ever increasing vocabulary, present-tense verbs, articles, and adjectives. Grammar is introduced and practiced in innovative and interesting ways with a variety of learning styles in mind.

Culture is sprinkled throughout the course in an attempt to help the learner focus on the Spanish-speaking world and their culture, people, geographical locations and histories. The course is aligned to the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Language standards.
