Note: #19 Beginning Spanish will be taught on Wednesday afternoons.
Classes #43 and 19 were switched in the printed catalog. 

This section of Spanish for Beginners 1B is a continuation of Spanish 1A, emphasizing pronunciation, basic vocabulary and present tense verbs. This is the second part of Spanish 1, so all students should be familiar with basic Spanish vocabulary (for example, names of family members, numbers to 100, telling time, names of days and months), pronunciation of vowels and consonants, and the present tense of regular verbs.  We will continue the story of Destinos (a no-cost online video and textbook), beginning with a review of the story and vocabulary of chapters 1-6. In classes, expect structured partner conversations and some discussion of grammar. Outside of class, expect to do homework using free online resources (Destinos and other) and an online dictionary on your cell phone. New material will include describing people, parts of the body, differences in use and meaning of ser and estar, indirect object pronouns, present tense of important irregular verbs and stem-changing verbs in the present tense. Bring $2 to the first class for handouts.  You will need a computer or tablet to view the Destinos textbook, videos and other course materials. Limit 22.
