05/01/2024 to 05/30/2025 • Modified 04/23/2024

Course Description

This year-long course will build on the fundamental language elements taught in Spanish I and II. Students will continue to develop their communicative competence by focusing on the four language skills: reading, writing, speaking, and listening. They will communicate on various topics using more complex structures in Spanish and move from concrete to more abstract concepts in various time frames. Students will learn about Hispanic culture and contemplate common cultural elements through a biblical worldview. Students will use authentic Spanish worship materials to develop their language skills to become faithful witnesses and effectively share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
