Study Shakespeare with a university professor who has PUBLISHED RESEARCH ABOUT Shakespearean literature! 🎭
This course illuminates selected works of Shakespeare and provides an introduction to the Elizabethan era. When you read Shakespeare do you think it’s all “Greek to me”? Then don’t worry; you’re already quoting him (Julius Caesar, III). This course is a fun, yes fun, introduction to Shakespeare, his work, his times, and his continuing impact. Students actively engage in exploration of Shakespeare’s works and creative responses to Shakespeare’s works. They may write (journals, essays, blogs); discuss/seminar (in small groups and large, online or in person); recite (sonnets, speeches); perform (scenes, acts, plays); create (electronic magazines/newspapers, web pages, original scripts and/or poems). The goal is to help students learn to enjoy Shakespeare (or any challenging literature) as they learn the skills of critical reading, listening and writing.
May be offered in Summer 2024 and Fall 2024, with a different focus in each semester. Prerequisite: None. Ask about earning HONORS credit.

Together we will use conversation, role playing, games, reading, and writing in ways that really support our learning. The second year of Middle School Spanish takes a step up in terms of learning the grammar and basic verb usage needed to speak Spanish correctly. Along with this we will be covering the necessary vocabulary to speak about these common themes: Daily life, sports and hobbies, making plans, places in the community, navigating a map, making purchases, and animals and habitats.

Students continue to develop and expand their proficiency skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing of Spanish with more in-depth study of the Hispanic/Latino culture.

In the first year of high school Spanish there is a lot to learn so that we can set up a strong foundation. We will cover lots of basic vocabulary in first semester and practice it with other students in class. In the second semester (in Spring) we will begin to put this vocabulary together in ways that allow us to expand our conversations, so that by the end of the year we have much of the basic vocabulary needed to survive while traveling in a Spanish-speaking country. We will have plenty of practice using the language to help us build the confidence needed to actually do that.
Course description:
Students develop skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Student will learn to understand and produce simple expressions and are introduced to the cultures of Spanish-speaking countries. The goal is to develop fluency in real-life situations within the novice range as indicated by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL). Emphasis is vocabulary development and essential grammar within a context. Students should be able to speak about themes of self, families, homes, friends and activities. Students should be able to communicate likes, dislikes, and preferences using the present time-frame. NOTE: 7th-8th grade students may register with instructor permission.
