Purpose

Spanish 1A  is a high school course that has been modified to meet the needs of the middle school student. Using the same text as the Spanish 1 class but only covering the first six chapters. The basics of the Spanish language as spoken in Latin America will be presented.  Students will learn greetings, verb conjugation, vocabulary, pronunciation and grammatical structures. In addition, students will study the Spanish speaking world as a mission field. My goal is for each student to develop beginning reading and conversational abilities of the Spanish language. In order to accomplish this each student must be willing to commit 45-60 minutes every school day in addition to class time.
