Spanish III
In Level III Spanish, students continue to develop their proficiency in the three strands of communicative competence: interacting with other speakers of the language, understanding oral and written messages in the target language and making oral and written presentations in the target language. They communicate at a level commensurate with their study, using more complex structures in the language on a variety of topics and moving from concrete to more abstract concepts. Students comprehend the main ideas of authentic materials they listen to and read, and are able to identify significant details when the topics are familiar. Students develop the ability to discuss in the target language topics related to historical and contemporary events and issues.
