¡Bienvenidos!!
This class is pretty intense between reviewing previously learned, but essential structures while building some more advanced structures- oh yeah - also learning what IB tests are all about. But it should be really enjoyable. We will cover lots of vocab and grammar while exploring all the different cultures of the Spanish speaking world.
This includes mostly reading, but some writing assignments as well would be included in this category
Práctica is a completion score based on the daily Schoology assignment; VHL assignments are based on accuracy
