Spanish II Syllabus
Teacher : Mr. Cornejo
This form must be reviewed and signed by the student and the Parent/Guardian and
returned.
Welcome to Spanish II. I am looking forward to a productive semester with all my
students. The Goals and Objectives are provided by the North Carolina Department of
Public Instruction and referred to as North Carolina World Languages other than English
Essential Standards. Emphasis is placed on the development of the four skills of
listening, speaking, reading and writing. The students will also acquire insight into how
language and culture work by comparing with their own.
By the end of the semester the students will be able to: speak and write in the present and
past tense; talk about their daily routine, where they live, household chores, school
activities, emergencies and shopping; understand some grammatical differences between
Spanish an English; cultural aspects of the countries where Spanish is spoken; learn how
to write and talk about actions as they happen and how to describe things with pronouns
and adjectives in a more advance context.
I have high expectations for behavior and performance by all the students. Working
together as partners will ensure success for each student. I am counting on your support.
Please feel free to call the school to schedule appointments to discuss anything
concerning your student. My email is ccornejo@iss.k12.nc.us. Please read and sign
those things which I ask your student to have you review.
