SO WHICH SPANISH LEVEL SHOULD A STUDENT BE AT NOW?
Novice High Speaker
can sometimes respond in intelligible
sentences, but will not be able to sustain
sentence-level discourse.
Novice High Speaker
are able to express personal meaning by
relying heavily on learned phrases or
recombinations of these. Their language
consists primarily of short and sometimes
incomplete sentences in the present tense,
Intermediate low Speaker
can say sentences, carry on conversation,
asking original questions, etc.
Intermediate Low
demonstrates Intermediate proficiency all
of the time but BARELY. They struggle to
do it.
COMMON CONCERNS OF PARENTS
How can I keep up with my student’s progress in Spanish
class?
Check their planbook daily. I have prepared a calendar
with all outside assignments, quiz dates and project due
dates. Please be proactive and check the calendar on a daily
basis to make sure that your student has the work prepared
for the following day. If you wait to get a progress report
from me, it is too late for late work to be turned in.
 My child says that they don’t understand because you speak in
Spanish all of the time. Students need to watch me as I am
speaking. I will use gestures, pictures, charts, cognates, etc. to
reinforce what I am saying and what they need to say in certain
situations. You taught them English that way, but they were too
young to remember.
 Is there any extra credit available? In order to receive extra
credit, students need to be caught up with daily practice
assignments and projects. Then Teacher decides about extra credit.
