Spanish I, Part I

This is an introductory course to the Spanish language and culture. Through the use of a textbook and authentic material, students discover a language and culture very different from the one in which they currently live. They explore Paraguay, Costa Rica, and Spain in particular. Students learn how to have introductory conversations about themselves, how to describe their school experience, and how to talk about their family and life at home. From the very first day, students will learn words and phrases upon which they will build for the rest of their language career at Falmouth Academy. Through listening, speaking, writing, and reading, students will find themselves becoming more and more fluent as the year progresses. Students from this class will move on to Spanish I, Part 2.
