RDE: Overview

Repaso de Español III

What do you know thus far? In this module, which is the initial portion of the B semester and the continuation of the AB semester, students will recap what was presented in previous Spanish semesters. We do so in order for students, who did not take the former semesters through GAVS, to at least have an idea as to what content was covered by GAVS in the Spanish 3A curriculum and level 2A/B. In addition, new material is introduced so we can continue building towards learning the target language.

Our curriculum continues to enhance our knowledge gained in the previous semesters via: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Emphasis is on perfecting pronunciation, listening to the target language in context, increasing communicative proficiency, and mastering basic grammatical structures. Supplemental materials are introduced to enhance our language acquisition process.
