Students will study, explore, practice, and review the rules of grammar along with the study of the nature, structure, and variation of language, including phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, sociolinguistics, and pragmatics of the Spanish Language Arts including Iberian and Latin American history and cultures (Spanish Language Arts Standards).
