SPANISH III – 1 Credit –
Grades 11-12
Prerequisite – Successful completion of Spanish II
Generally speaking, four years of a foreign language in high
school equals two years at the university level. Students
would be wise to continue their study of Spanish beyond
Spanish II to possibly meet university requirements for
foreign language proficiency. The goal of Spanish III and IV
is learning to live and function socially in the target
culture. The Destinos video series will continue to
serve as the core curriculum at the advanced levels with
supplementary materials added. In addition to a continued
systematic progression of vocabulary study, grammar, oral
communication skills and Hispanic culture exposure, students
will work more in expressing themselves by writing journals
and presenting individual and group projects centering on
Hispanic history and culture. The College Board AP Exam will
be an option at the end of this course, for a fee. See
agenda book regarding language on AP Course Policy.
SPANISH IV - 1 Credit –
Grade 12
Prerequisite – Successful completion of
Spanish III
Spanish IV rounds out the curriculum, providing an
opportunity for acquiring additional vocabulary and grammar,
as well as polishing the basic language skills of
comprehension, listening, speaking, reading and writing. The
goal is for students to consistently function in Spanish in
the upper intermediate level of proficiency in all areas.
Journals and individual and group projects centering around
Hispanic history and culture will continue to be a part of
this course. The College Board AP Exam will be an option at
the end of this course, for a fee. See agenda book regarding
language on AP Course Policy.
