To succeed in Spanish III, students should already be comfortable with key foundational skills, including the use of personal pronouns, noun-adjective agreement in gender and number, conjugation of regular and irregular verbs in the present tense, expressing quantities, making comparisons, and using demonstrative and possessive pronouns. Build on that foundation by studying negative sentence structures, indirect object pronouns, and the conjugation of verbs in the past and future tenses. Through a mix of speaking, writing, and listening activities, students will deepen their communication skills and gain confidence in discussing past events, making future plans, and expressing more complex ideas. No class 2/18.
