10th & 11th Intermediate Spanish Awaken intelligence, awareness, questioning, exposure, curiosity, group process, empathy, tolerance, analyze, & communication

Teacher: Elizabeth Del Negro School tel: (805) 646-8236 ext. 224 Office Hours: Anytime by appointment in room 24.

Course Description: This project based course covers themes relating to North and Central America. Using “The Arts of Living and Learning” reading & listening comprehension, writing & speaking skills, new grammar, and vocabulary are acquired primarily through an in-depth inquiry into the history of contemporary and pre-Columbian cultures of Latin America, exposure to literature, art, & music, dialogues, oral presentations, and written reports. Class Meeting Times: Monday, Thursday, and Friday Period 4 (10:40-11:25); Tuesday Block A from 8:00-9:20. Classroom: Room 24 Homework: Students should expect to spend on average 3- 3 ½ hours a week on homework for this class. The homework, like all class material, is designed to be as meaningful as possible to the student. It is therefore expected that the student will arrive in class each day having done the work. When a student cannot come to class because of illness, s/he should email the homework to me by the next day, unless other arrangements have been made. Homework assignments can be found on the homework calendar online at http://assignaday.4teachers.org/ . To log on type Del Negro for teacher’s name and Spanish for subject. Then click on your class. If for some reason homework is missed, s/he can take on extra credit work to make up the difference. I do not, under any circumstances, accept late assignments, although I will note that they are done—this may help a grade if it is in between two grades at the end of the semester. Textbooks: TBA Guidelines on Class Behavior: Students are expected to behave in such a way that is conducive to the creation of a learning atmosphere. During the first week of the school year students and the teacher will come to a shared understanding of what constitutes such behavior.

Attendance: Students are required to follow school policy on attendance: if students miss 10 or more classes (not only days) during a semester, whether excused or not, their course grade will automatically be a C (or lower if their grade is below that). Coming more than 30 minutes late to class counts as an absence. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of every class. Should you miss a class, you are responsible for catching up. You should assume that you have missed something important and find out what it is. Tardiness: Students are required to be on time to class. Tardiness is disrespectful to the teacher and to other members of the class. Please come to class a few minutes before it starts. Wearing or consulting a watch is very helpful in this regard. Tardiness will be noted at the start of every class. According to school policy, if a student is late 10 or more times per semester, their grade will be dropped a full grade (e.g. C to a D). Student Needs: Students need to bring to every class: 1. Working pencils, pens and hi-liter, binder paper 2. A binder in which to store notes, handouts and their graded materials 3. Textbook(s) or other reading materials 4. A Flash Drive 5. Appropriate materials per assignment for creative projects 6. Flash cards (these can be index cards or homemade flash cards)

In addition, students need access to a computer at home with a word processing program capable of formatting papers as indicated. They will also need a printer that uses standard 81/2 x 11 printing paper. Grades: 1. Students should retain all graded assignments in order to keep track of their grade for the entire year. 2. If a student earns a grade of D or lower I will contact the student's parents. Grade percentage for the Fall & Spring Semester: Weekly homework assignments and quizzes– 30% Essays and Unit Tests – 30% Class participation – 10% Projects–20% Final exam or Final project– 10% A = 90% B = 80%

C = 70% D = 60% F = 50%

Class Participation Class participation is evaluated on the following criteria: 1. Students take notes as appropriate 2. Students are alert and prepared to participate in class 3. Students volunteer to participate in class discussion and activities 4. Students co-create an atmosphere conducive to learning

Class Presentations and Project Papers Oral presentation and essay rubrics will be handed out to students and discussed so that they understand what is expected of them. Students will need visual aides to enhance their presentation, PowerPoint is recommended, but any creative effort above and beyond is applauded. All projects and essays must include bibliographies and a minimum of 3 sources cited. Extra Credit Students will have opportunities throughout the year write additional papers for extra credit. The topic of these papers will supplement readings and activities discussed in class, but may also be generated by student’s interest of additional topics of Spanish and Latin American culture. Opportunities to experience cultural events in our area will be announced during the course of each semester. These will be posted in the classroom on the current events board. Midterm and Final Exams Exams will be designed to assess comprehension of reading, writing, speaking, listening, and include all material discussed during the semester.
