This course begins with an intensive review of Spanish I. Methods are much the same as in level I; however, more of the course is conducted in Spanish as students continue to develop the ability to understand, speak, read, and write. Oral work is stressed and self-initiated conversation is encouraged. Students will be prompted to manipulate the language at a more advanced level while expanding vocabulary, applying grammatical structures, and strengthening awareness of cultural similarities and differences. Performance-based assessments such as skits and videos are a regular component of the course. Short readers, various realia and media, as well as a text-based Supersite accompany the text program.
Prerequisite: Completion of Spanish I with a grade of C or better or permission of the instructor.
