Spanish II - Pre AP Oral work

PRE-AP (PA) what does that mean? 

For starters, Spanish.  You are expected to speak Spanish in this setting.  it is truly the only way to improve.  I know that it is scary for some, easy for others, but you as the student must concentrate on your own progress.  Being in a pre-ap setting is about setting your pride and ego aside so that you can make the mistakes you need to make to learn!  Make the mistakes here - so you won't make them out there. 

Be ready to hit the ground running.  PA moves at a good rate of speed.  Vocabulary is a must.  Be ready for frequent quizzing.  The reading of authentic works and verbs!  This up coming year you will learn so many new verb forms and times - it will really expand your ability to speak and say what you want. 

It is hard work? Yes.  Is it long assignments?  Sometimes.  Is it worth it?  Ask a student who took the class last year.  They will tell you.
