ESPAÑOL 2
¡Bienvenidos a Español 2! Welcome to Spanish 2. Welcome back, I hope that you all had a great summer. This course
will expand your vocabulary and we will add many other verb tenses. The course will be taught primarily in Spanish. You
will be provided a textbook (GLENCOE SPANISH 2 BUEN VIAJE), which will remain in the classroom. A workbook
(WRITING ACTIVITIES WORKBOOK) packet will be given at the beginning of each chapter. You will be responsible for
completing workbook pages for homework throughout the chapter.
During the first semester we will cover chapters 1-3 and in the second semester we will cover chapters 4-9. There will be
chapter projects, pop quizzes and tests for each chapter completed. I encourage you to speak as much Spanish inside and
outside of the classroom. This is a great opportunity for you to take advantage of speaking the language. Plus, it could
always help your participation points!!
Technology in the classroom will be use throughout the year. I continually update my website at
www.burgettstown.k12.pa.us, with weekly homework assignments, projects completed in class, and news happening in our
school and classroom. I will also post all vocabulary lists (blank and answers) for you to use as a study aid. Please check
out my website for information you may have missed in class. I also update grades weekly and they can be viewed through
MMS Gradebook, please monitor your grade through this website.
