Spanish IV Honors

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 are able to exchange and support opinions on a variety of topics related to contemporary and historical events and issues, at a proficiency level commensurate with their study. Students comprehend spoken and written texts from a variety of authentic sources as well as produce compositions containing well-developed ideas on various topics. Class is conducted exclusively in Spanish. Students use the target language to access information in other subject areas and to compare and contrast cultural elements in the countries where the language is spoken with their own.
