Spanish II CP Spanish II CP

Spanish II is a continuing study of the Spanish world, its language and its people. The main emphasis is still placed on oral skills while reading and writing skills are going to become highly important. The student will begin to understand the interrelationships of both the English and Spanish languages and will continue to develop a cultural appreciation of the Hispanic world. The focus of this course is on high novice to intermediate proficiency. 


Students will have one McDougall-Littell text for this class.  The hard cover book En Español (Texas Edition ISBN 0618433074) is the required text.  Please be very careful when purchasing your text.  McDougall-Littell make different versions of this text and you may purchase the wrong version if you are not careful.  If you would like to have other resources, McDougall-Littell makes a Take Home Tutor (ISBN 618345582) as well as a workbook (ISBN 0618661441) for additional outside practice and study.


At all levels students are graded using a variety of methods.  Students may be graded using an old fashion pencil and paper test, a more modern use of oral recordings, their ability on a formal writing assignment or a cultural production. 


Daily study of vocabulary is very important.  For each student to be successful and enjoy the class, they need to understand what is being said and asked of them.  Our goal at this level is to continue and foster communication with the students in the target language.
