En términos del uso del lenguaje, haremos hincapié en 1) contar cosas vistas, 2) resumir cosas leídas, 3) comentar los asuntos que surjan de las lecturas y de nuestras conversaciones, y 4) expresar opiniones, preferencias, y sugerencias. Language Skills Expectations for This Course: What You Are Expected to Know Already In March, 2005, the Spanish faculty at UL Lafayette endorsed the following expectations for students who pass Spanish 201, and enter Spanish 203. I am assuming, therefore, that students who enter Spanish 203, meet these expectations. If you do not, and you hope to pass Spanish 203, you should begin working with a tutor from the first day of class forward. "Students who pass Spanish 201, or who are about to begin Spanish 203, should be able to: § Read and understand information, descriptions, and simple narrative texts that use the past, present and/or future tenses and employ authentic language, expressions, and cultural information; § Write guided prose of 2-3 paragraphs (one page) in the present, future and/or past, on any of the topics presented in the 101-102-201 text, speaking about their past experiences (preterit, impertect tenses), future plans (future tense), and their daily routine (present tense), as well as expressing their opinions, hopes, doubts, desires, etc. (present subjunctive) on these topics. (Most students will not, however, exhibit control of the preterit/imperfect and subjunctive/indicative distinctions). § Express themselves orally on the same topics and in the same tenses mentioned above. (Again, most students will not exhibit good control of the preterit/imperfect and subjunctive/indicative distinctions.) § Be aware of Hispanic culture, based on the topics presented in the 101-102-201 text." |
