Grade: 11-12

Credit: 1 unit
PREREQUISITE: C- or above in the previous course or teacher approval

Work includes cultures of the Spanish-speaking peoples, longer readings, and more extensive writing. The student should
expect to work independently and to speak Spanish as much as possible to strengthen communication skills. Vocabulary topics
include the history of the Spanish-speaking world, music, holidays, poetry, leisure activities, Latinos in the US and
bilingualism. Active class participation is essential. Because this class emphasizes communication, regular attendance is
required. The class may be offered for dual credit to eligible students. Dual credit information can also be found under
