Course Summary

Bienvenidos al Español IV! During the 2011-12 school year, we will engage in an in depth study of not only the Spanish language, but also a selection of some of the most inspirational literary figures and artists from Latin America. Students focus on historical figures that have blazed trails for the rest of us to follow, thus altering the course of world history. Spanish IV students also take a closer look at the cultures of Panama, Costa Rica, Bolivia, Peru, Honduras & Mexico. Grammar points include more practice with the subjunctive, future and conditional tenses.
