Spanish

Spanish in grades 5-8 is a Comprehensible Input course that uses the Listos and Descubre curriculums.

Class time is focused on the acquisition of high frequency structures (the most frequently used words in a language). These structures are used in class discussions, stories, games, and cultural explorations. Students are expected to recognize these high frequency structures when reading and listening and, in time, to produce them in speech and writing. As students progress, the range of topics they are able to communicate about increases and the complexity of the language they can comprehend and produce increases.
