They can supply limited information on simple forms and documents, and other basic biographical information, such as names, numbers, and nationality. Novice Mid writers and speakers exhibit a high degree of accuracy on familiar topics using limited formulaic language. Proficient fluency takes time and practice. It isn’t that you “can’t do it”. It’s that you can’t do it YET!19050-3810 Google Classroom/Teacher WebsiteOur class has its own Google Classroom page where assignments, project dates and important class information will be posted regularly. I strongly suggest that all students and parents join our page. Google ID numbers:3511138344318Course DescriptionThe Accelerated Spanish course focuses on the development of communicative competence in the target language and understanding of the culture(s) of the people who speak the language. The major means of communication between students and instructors will be in the target language. Through consistent and comprehensible exposure to grammatically-correct language, students develop an "ear" for language. By allowing students to proceed with natural language acquisition, fluency is promoted. Students no longer think about grammar rules–the main reason language production in traditional classes is typically low. The focus will be on the four areas of language: reading, writing, speaking and listening. Achievement will be measured in these areas using performance-based assessments. These show us what the student can “do” using the language.00Course DescriptionThe Accelerated Spanish course focuses on the development of communicative competence in the target language and understanding of the culture(s) of the people who speak the language.
