This course is structured to provide a review of the most commonly taught Spanish 1 grammar concepts in order
to increase the probability of a student’s success in passing a Spanish 2 entrance exam. Do you have
knowledge of basic Spanish vocabulary such as numbers, telling time, dates, weather, and family? Are you
familiar with basic verb forms, such as soy, es, tengo, estoy, and estás? This course is for students who have
studied Spanish but need to develop stronger foundational skills before advancing to a more rigorous high
school Spanish 2 class. This includes students who may have struggled in Spanish 1 and need to review
Spanish 1 grammar prior to entering Spanish 2.
It is especially geared toward students with years of elementary school Spanish who wish to enter high school at
the Spanish 2 level but may be missing some of the grammar needed to pass their high school Spanish 2
entrance exam.
This summer class will provide students the opportunity to review essential high school Spanish 1 grammar
concepts. At the end of this course, incoming students grades 8 - 12 may choose to take Hill-Murray’s placement
test to determine whether they are ready for a high school Spanish 2 course.
All students will require a three-ring binder, a notebook, and a pen. Students will also each need daily access to
a laptop for use during classes and to complete online work.
