Language Study 0202 - Intermediate Spanish II

This course is the second semester of second-year Spanish. Students enrolled should have taken IA/LS 201 or the equivalent and be able to use the present, future, preterit, imperfect tenses, command forms and present subjunctive with some fluency. This course will solidify grammatical structures of Spanish through activities that practice all four skill areas: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Attention will be given to more sophisticated use of the subjunctive and compound tenses. Authentic materials that focus on the culture and literature of the Spanish-speaking world will be used as well as the textbook, Imagina. As in IA/LS 201, focus will be placed on accuracy in speaking and writing in Spanish. This is an integrated language course.
