Sections and Teachers
Section 1: Instructor: Brian Reeves
Starts: September 6, 2011

Spanish 1: The first of a two year sequence designed to develop the conversational skills, vocabulary and grammar necessary to use the Spanish language, along with developing reading and writing skills. The textbook is Hola, Amigos! Worktext, Volume 1, 7th ed. by Jarvis, Lebredo and Mena-Ayllon (Heinle Cengage) 2011. In addition, students will be expected to purchase the accompanying online student activity manual (e-SAM) through Quia. As an alternative, students may wish to purchase the single volume version of Hola, Amigos! (all the material covered in years 1 and 2) which does not contain the printed workbook activities contained in the Worktext. In any event, classes will be conducted twice a week using WizIQ as the platform. The only additional hardware/software required will be a headphone set including a microphone. Online class time will be devoted to conversational practice, grammar explanations with practice exercises, and oral reading practice. All writing activities, vocabulary memorization and e-SAM exercises will be conducted outside of class during the students' homework time. Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites for Spanish 1; the assumption made is that students have had no prior study of Spanish or any other language.
Recommended background
The stronger a student's understanding of English grammar, the better prepared the student will be to grasp Spanish grammar. However, frequent comparisons will be made to English grammar throughout the course, and students often find that their understanding of English grammar will improve through the study of a foreign language.
