Spanish for Spanish Speakers 1-2 is the first year of language study for Spanish-speaking students. This is a year-long program designed to help speakers of Spanish who have received all or most of their schooling in English to access the Spanish for Spanish Speakers curriculum. The course builds literacy skills through purposeful and relevant language activities and assists students in transferring their reading and writing skills from English to Spanish. Students will engage in the writing process, free reading, journal writing and other activities which complement the instruction they receive in English courses.
