Course Information:
Spanish IB (8th grade Spanish) constitutes a two-semester study of the second half of level 1 Spanish for high school credit. Proficiencies of listening, speaking, writing, as well as language learning skills will be covered in this class. Cultural aspects of the Spanish-speaking world are emphasized throughout both semesters. The students are expected to develop some communicative competencies through participation in a variety of oral and written activities. Students will communicate in the present tense and will be using a broad range of vocabulary.
Exploratory Languages is 9 weeks of the 6th Grade Wheel Elective. Students will increase their awareness of other languages and cultures, identify commonalities between cultures, gain a basic understanding of language acquisition and have fun while learning.
This 9 week course will focus on:
* Spanish – 2 ½ weeks * Latin – 2 weeks
* French – 2 weeks * The cultures of the countries where these
languages are spoken – 2 ½ weeks
Teacher Information: I am excited for this upcoming year. I taught in sunny Arizona before moving out here to beautiful Texas after getting married this summer and I am happy to be teaching here at DSMS! Go tigers!
