This course is designed for students who have successfully completed Spanish 5-6. It is an advanced course and is intended to extend students’ facility in each of the major communication skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. The course uses a communicative approach that provides opportunities for students to use the second language appropriately in a range of authentic social and academic contexts and for a variety of purposes. In addition to the textbook and workbook activities, students will submit academically challenging oral and written projects. Through the study of a variety of texts selected for this course, students will develop critical thinking skills and will enhance their cultural perspectives of diverse peoples around the world. Simple literary works, selected articles from periodicals, essays and other narratives of general interest may be used as the basis for continued development of the students’ proficiency in literary and language skills. Major emphasis is on development of the ability to speak fluently with accurate pronunciation and intonation, while focusing on appreciation of the culture. This course meets the University of California’s e (language other than English) subject-area requirement.
