Spanish 1B
Grade Level: 8th
Length of Course: Year
Prerequisite: 1A

Students continue to develop and expand their proficiency in listening comprehension, speaking, reading, and writing Spanish. The study of thematic topics such as talking on the phone, daily routine, invitations, food, clothes, shopping, the body, and health is continued. Communicative activities in Spanish will involve students in a variety of practical situations for further independent development of their oral fluency and written language skills. Students will participate in a more in-depth study of Spanish language and culture as well as grammatical structures. This will help them to build a strong foundation for entry into the high school Spanish 2 course.

Students must maintain a "C" average and pass the final placement exam in order to qualify for Spanish 2 in high school.
