Spanish I is the introductory level for students who have very little or no background in Spanish. Students focus on basic grammar structures as well as vocabulary dealing with daily activities, cultural experiences, and differences in the Spanish-speaking world. Listening and speaking skills are developed using interactive text, audio activities, and dialogue. Students begin to develop the four basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Using the target language as much as possible, the students develop verbal and written proficiency with the goal of mastering the language.
