In Spanish, students gain intense practice of most tenses as well as in their speaking skills. The Latin American literature greats are reviewed (from 9th grade year) and selected readings from AP Spanish are examined and discussed in depth. The political contributions of authors like Burgos, Marti and Borges are studied in conjunction with History. Students do 'mini-projects' with Neruda's Odes, Storni's poetry as well as a more in-depth project on the Trujillo regime through the novel, Before We Were Free.
