Spanish Immersion courses prepare students to communicate authentically in Spanish by interpreting (reading, listening, viewing), exchanging (speaking and listening; reading and writing), and presenting (speaking, writing) information about standards-based academic content and incorporate the relationships among the products, practices, and perspectives of Spanish-speaking cultures. Students in this course writing should reflect all of the elements of effective writing taught previously. Deliberate organization, word choice, research, task, audience, and purpose should be evident in student writing. Students continue to routinely respond to texts and draw evidence from texts to support analysis, reflection, and research in their writing.
