Elementary Spanish meets three times a week. The class is interactive, and missed meetings cannot be made up. Any absence should be discussed with the instructor who will grant excuses for illness, family emergencies, and religious holidays. Students with more than three unexcused absences may be asked to withdraw. Spanish will be spoken in class, and student participation is expected at all times.
Mistakes are a natural part of the learning process.
The first few lines of every entry list what is to be completed prior to class. Exercises from these books, as well as the audio CD, will be done in class and assigned as homework. The Manual contains an answer key. Copies of all video materials are on reserve in Knapp Center. Assignments are to be typed, double-spaced.
