Spanish

Living in Texas, Spanish is one of the most useful modern languages for students to learn. Beyond high school and college language requirements, the ability to communicate in Spanish is helpful in everyday life, business, and evangelism.

Spanish 1 introduces students to beginning Spanish. Students will learn how to ask and answer questions in Spanish, give and follow directions, purchase items, make small talk, and present the gospel. The textbook is rich with activities to help students gain confidence with the Spanish language.

In Spanish 2, students learn to communicate comfortably at an intermediate level with Spanish-speaking people in a variety of setting: a store, a bank, an airport, a hotel, a doctor's office, an auto shop, and on the mission field. Grammar, pronunciation, writing, listening, verb tenses, and moods are emphasized in a variety of exercises and Spanish dialogues.

In Spanish 3, further develop students' mastery of vocabulary, oral communication skills, and grammatical structure with a special focus on verb forms. The text features true stories and letters from missionaries in Spanish-speaking countries. The Student Text teaches the language as well as the culture.
