  3. Español I • Full year program. • Same as Spanish I at Downers Grove North. • Our classes are shorter in lengeth than DGN. • Test or Quiz each week; Semester Exam = Early January; Final Exam = May / June. • Focus: • Correct pronunciation, comprehension, and usage of key vocabulary and grammar. • Proficiency in reading, writing, listening, and communicating at beginning level Spanish. • Common Spanish cultural customs. • ¡Avancemos!: • Student resources: Textbook & Workbook (Cuaderno: practica por niveles) • On-line resources (book, @ home tutore, etc.): classzone.com • Midterm (January) & Final (End of May).

  4. Grading & Advancing to Level 2 • Quarter Grades: • Grade breakdown: 45% Tests, 25% Qizzes & Other Assessments, 30% Speaking Tests. • Advancing to Level 2 & DGN Course Credit: • Based on teacher recommendation. • DGN requests recommendations in January / February. • Herrick Foreign Language teachers make necessary changes to recommendation in the Spring, based on student progress. • DGN guides us to recommend students for level II who consistently maintain a C or better overall grade, and regularly earn A’s and/or B’s on tests / quizzes. • To get DGN credit students must not only pass Spanish I with a C or better, they must also earn a C or better on the midterm and final exams.

  5. Homework & Review • Daily homework (Approximately 30 min.) • Generally, for a completion grade. • Late work accepted anytime, unless otherwise stated. • Daily study (15 – 30 min. in addition to daily homework) • Review notes, handouts, and text explanations. • Examine homework assignments to review and self – assess progress. • Practice with exercises from the book. • Visit websites that offer practice and review. (See links on my classroom website) • Go over flashcards. • Drill a friend. • Teach the vocab and grammar to someone at home. • Come in for help and review. • Utilize strategies that fit your learning style.

  6. Language Proficiency • It takes 70 exposures to internalize a new vocabulary word in a second language. • It takes over 700 hours of language use to become proficient in a language.
