Información Básica (grades 7-12):
Research and experience demonstrate that ongoing use and practice of a language is the best way to facilitate the basic skills. As a result, the NDPMA Modern Language Department has implemented a mandatory summer on-line program as part of our Spanish curriculum. This is a wonderful opportunity to maintain and even improve language skills over the summer, and should make the transition back into the Spanish classroom much smoother and easier in the fall. Students will work with grammatical and structural items as well as with reading comprehension and writing skills. Pronunciation may be practiced via the audio files.

- Summer work is divided into 3 segments "Etapas".
- Students should spend 2-3 weeks on each "Etapa" unless otherwise noted.
- Most of the work is done "on your honor"- this means that you need to complete all of the work but you do NOT have to email, print, screen shot, etc. the results (unless further directions ask you to submit). You will be assessed on the material the first week of school.
- The first week of school, all students will be tested/assessed or give a presentation EN ESPAÑOL of their summer course work, no exceptions! All presentation work should be completed using your own words, in Spanish!
- When clicking links to visit Spanish learning sites, you are NOT required to create accounts and/or pay for language learning services. All links will direct you to FREE learning activities.
- Students going into grade 6th grade Spanish or NDP Spanish 1 are not responsible for summer Spanish activities.
- If you have any questions, contact Sra. Rapson, NDP Modern Language department chair [email protected].
