Spanish 1 is an introduction to the Spanish language and the culture of the
Spanish-speaking world. Class instruction will focus on the basic skills of
reading, writing, listening, and speaking in Spanish. At the end of Level I,
students will be able to express themselves and engage in simple conversations
in Spanish within the limits of their knowledge of vocabulary and structure.
Students are encouraged to use their Spanish skills both inside and outside of
the classroom. Learning to speak, write, and read in Spanish will prepare
students to become citizens of our increasingly globalized world.
