Hello 7th Grade Spanish Students!
Bienvenida.
This is your page. Here you'll find your syllabus for this school year and important information about class. Your homework assignments, projects, quiz and test dates will be posted here as well. We are just beginning our exploration of Spanish language and culture, and we are going to focus on authentic communication in Spanish. We will practice speaking, listening, reading and writing. We will also learn about the hispanic culture throughout the world so we can compare it to our own and discover similarities and differences. We have a great year ahead of us!
