L3 Spanish

Course Description

Students are expected to engage with and respond clearly and critically to a variety of extended texts, including authentic texts (those not created or modified specifically for language learners). They are expected to use the language more flexibly and with greater effectiveness at times in sustained interactions and extended texts. 

They are expected to explore the views of others, develop and share personal perspectives, and justify, support, or challenge ideas and opinions in different situations and on matters that are beyond their immediate experience. 

In all their output, it is expected that students will use their developing knowledge of linguistic and cultural forms to help them create meaning.
