Year 9 Spanish- Half Year

Spanish- Semester course

The Year 9 Spanish Half Year course introduces students to the language.  Emphasis is placed on verbal communication but the basics of Spanish grammar and writing skills are also covered.

Learning a foreign language involves getting to know about the cultural aspects and traditions of the country where the language is spoken.  The cultures, geography and customs of Spanish-speaking countries will be incorporated into the course to encourage comparisons.

Students will learn to talk about topics of personal interest such as themselves, their family, pets and school.

Note: Even with half a year of Spanish, it is possible to continue with Spanish at Year 10 level and beyond
