FBISD Spanish 2 Course Description: Students will progress toward a Novice- High level of proficiency, as defined by the ACTFL standards, as they are introduced to the Five Program Goals of the TEKS for Language Other Than English: Communication, Cultures, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities. Students will be assessed regularly in the three modes of communication: interpersonal (unscripted conversation in order to complete a task), interpretive (reading, listening, viewing), and presentational (rehearsed and revised oral and written products). The focus of the course is authentic, real-world communication, as students make connections and compare their own language and culture to the communities of the Spanish-speaking world.
