What is Spanish? Studying Spanish involves learning how to read, write, listen to and speak the Spanish language. It also involves studying the culture of Spanish-speaking countries, both Spain and in Latin America. Through studying the different cultural practices in the Spanish-speaking world you will learn how to communicate effectively in Spanish. Why study Spanish? Being able to communicate in another language is a skill that will be useful, wherever you go after you complete your A-levels. You will also develop skills in critical thinking, analysing texts, and in research.
• Paper 1: Reading, writing and listening. This paper focuses on the Spanish language and is assessed through a variety of questions (e.g. multiple choice, summaries, translations) which are centred around the different cultural topics studied. • Paper 2: Writing. This paper involves writing essays on the texts studied. • Paper 3: Speaking. One part of this is a card on one of the cultural topics studied. The other part is a presentation and conversation about a research project that you will carry out, on a topic that is of interest to you and that you have chosen to study.
