Description
Spanish 3 immerses learners into the rich diversity of Hispanic culture across the globe. Students are invited to explore the tastes, sights, and sounds of a very dynamic language—a language reflective of triumph, struggle, celebration, religion, and so much more.
Prepare to take a cultural journey while improving conversational, vocabulary, and writing skills through authentic tasks. Short of obtaining a passport, there is no better way to discover new lands, peoples, or experiences. Nor is there a more compelling way to take your Spanish language abilities to the next level.
