Course Description
Open to: 9, 10, 11, 12 One Year Course
Prerequisite: Spanish 1, 2 and 3
Content: Students will continue in their study of Spanish. They will review
acquired vocabulary, structures and expressions as well as acquire new vocabulary,
structures and expressions. Pronunciation and common expressions will be reviewed
and introduced, as well as customs and culture of the Spanish-speaking world.
Listening and speaking will be stressed in addition to reading and writing
activities.
Philosophy
Spanish 4 is a continuation and recycling of what
the students acquired in Spanish 1-3, as well as introduction
to new vocabulary, structures and expressions. The
students are afforded an environment in which the vocabulary
and structure from Spanish 1, 2 and 3 are reinforced
and expanded to assist the students in acquiring Spanish
in a deeper context. Through varied sources of input,
students are given the opportunity to practice previous
vocabulary and structure. More emphasis will be placed
on reading as a way to acquire a richer array of vocabulary
and structure. The students will be introduced to and
study more thoroughly the Spanish-speaking countries
in the world, along with the literature and culture
of those countries. Spanish 4 continues to lay the
groundwork for a life-long exploration and participation
into Spanish language and culture in the global community.

Grades
The grade a student receives in this course will
be a reflection of how the student has performed in
two areas: the assimilation and the acquisition of
performance skills. These performance skills are referenced
in the approved Spanish 4 curriculum . The course grade
will be calculated from scores obtained on unit tests,
projects and activities (reading, writing, listening
and oral language production), homework, and a final
semester test. Progress reports should provide the
student and parents with information (average grades
or percentages) in four main areas: unit tests, projects/activities,
homework completed, as well as participation in class.
