Spanish II Syllabus

Teacher : Mr. Cornejo

This form must be reviewed and signed by the student and the Parent/Guardian and returned.

Welcome to Spanish II. I am looking forward to a productive semester with all my students. The Goals and Objectives are provided by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction and referred to as NC Standard Course of Study (NCSCOS). Emphasis is placed on the development of the four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. The students will also acquire insight into how language and culture work by comparing with their own.

By the end of the semester the students will be able to: Speak and write in the present and past tense; talk about their daily routine, where they live, household chores, school activities, emergencies and shopping; the proper structure of the Spanish sentences compared to English sentences; understand some cultural aspects of the countries where Spanish is spoken; learn how to write and talk about actions as they happen and how to describe things with pronouns and adjectives in a more advance context.

I have high expectations for behavior and performance by all the students. Working together as partners will ensure success for each student. I am counting on your support. Please feel free to call the school to schedule appointments to discuss anything concerning your student. My email is . Please read and sign those things which I ask your student to have you review.
