Recommended Prior Learning

It is highly recommended that students have studied Spanish in Year 9. If not, they will need to work harder at the beginning of the year to reach the level expected.


Students are encouraged to increase their ability to communicate both in oral and written everyday Spanish situations. Students learn the differences and similarities between their own language(s) and Spanish. They learn to give and receive information in Spanish in a variety of topics, for example:

  • Shopping, asking and giving direction, talking about meals, buying drinks and food, talking about holiday, free time, home, clothes, music, TV,
  • The cultural emphasis at this level focuses on food, sports and Spanish dances in Spain and Latin America.
  • Students will make connection between the indigenous culture in Latin America and and the Māori culture.
  • Students will learn differences and similarities between their own culture and Spanish-speaking cultures
