Dear Students and Parents, Congratulations! You have successfully
June 1, 2015
Dear Students and Parents,
Congratulations! You have successfully completed the coursework for level 3/3H, met the
requirements for advancement, and have been recommended by the Dept. of Modern Languages
to continue your language instructions in Spanish AP Language and Culture for the Fall 2015-16
school year.
In preparation for Spanish AP you will need to continue to review and build upon your language
skills and better your language knowledge so that classes can begin at the pace necessary to
cover the AP curriculum. Spanish AP Language and Culture is a class that is for highlymotivated independent learners and is an intense, demanding course. Upon completion of the AP
Spanish Language and Culture you will take the AP Spanish Language Exam. Your goal should
be to pass the AP exam with a score of 3 or higher.
To that end, the following Spanish language activities are to be completed during the summer in
order to keep the Spanish language alive. In order to receive full credit, the written work must be
submitted the first day of class. On the first day of class, you will hand in the written sections,
and during the first week of classes you will present the oral report.
It is important that you consistently practice and hone your Spanish skills by doing a little each week.
It is not recommended that you save everything for the end as it will be too large a task to complete
successfully. The Summer Packet work will be the first graded assignment for AP Spanish Language
along with the scores from the oral presentation and quiz. Only those students who meet the
requirements will be allowed to continue in the AP class.
Should you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Kevin Clark
Spanish Teacher

You Summer Assignment has been broken down into the four skill areas related to
language learning: Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking
Watch 4 video clips from the selection of online Hispanic newspapers that are listed below.
Look for links for each video. Explore the site because there are a lot of interesting things to
choose from. For each one you must complete the multimedia@AP sheet that is included in
this document. You must make 4 copies. If the video you select seems difficult I recommend
that you listen to it several times.
Read 3 articles taken from the list of online Hispanic news papers below. For each one you
must make 3 copies of the laprensa@AP sheet that is included in this document, complete them
AND attach a copy of the article to each one. Before you decide on an article, explore the
different sections in the newspaper.
Read 1 cuento included in this packet. You will answer the questions on a separate sheet of
paper. Elaborate on the answers that need explanation. Upon returning to school there will be a
quiz on this story after reviewing the questions you answered. (El nino y la niebla de Rodolfo
Usigli).
Research and oral presentation: “Mini-biography” (Grading: See attached rubric) You will
present information in Spanish about a famous Hispanic person. The presentation must be at
least 2 minutes long. During the oral presentations, you will be permitted to have a 3x5 note card
for important dates/facts however, the you will NOT be allowed to read from the card. This
should not be a last minute presentation. Be sure to adequately research the person, plan and
organize your presentation and rehearse it before the day you present.
Information to be included:
a. Date when the person was born and when he/she died
b. Where they were born and family background
c. Occupation and what they did that was significant /major accomplishments
d. What makes this person unique/famous and something interesting about them
e. A picture of the person. Feel free to make poster as reference and to help the audience learn
about your person.
Due date: You will turn in these activities the first day of class. The grades you receive for
your work as well as the quiz on the cuento will be your first grade in the AP Spanish Language
class. You will only turn in the pages from the 4 multimedia@AP selections, 3 pages from the
laprensa@AP selections and the answers from the 1 story.
IMPORTANT: All summer homework must be your own work with original ideas, using
your own words. The use of translators is considered cheating and is prohibited on all
homework assignments. The use of dictionaries, however, is useful tool for the AP course.
Your work should be original and not plagiarized. Be careful using the Internet. Before
beginning your Summer Homework you must read the Academic Honesty Statement. When you
are finished with your homework, you must print it, sign it and turn it in with your Summer
Homework.

Lectura: EL NIÑO Y LA NIEBLA (fragmento)
SOBRE EL AUTOR: El estritor mexicano Rodolfo Usigli (1905-1979) fue ensayista, poeta y narrador,
además de profesor y diplomático, pero es más conocido por sus obras de teatro. Como dramaturgo
exploró las verdades de la naturaleza humano y de la sociedad, y mostró las fuerzas contradictorias
dentro de ellas: la hipocresía y el egoísmo. En 1972, el gobierno mexicano le otorgó el Premio Nacional
de Letras.
SOBRE LA LECTURA: Este fragmento de la obra dramatúrgica El niño y la niebla (1936) aborda temas
que siguen siendo relevantes hoy día. en la obra se presentan los conflictos familiares, las dificultades
de la adolescencia y el papel de los valores que regulan las relaciones dentro de una familia. Esta obra
de teatro se estrenó en 1951 y fue llevada al cine en 1953.

Here are some recommendations for things to do over the summer and during the
school year to help prepare you for the language exam. These are in addition to
your summer assignments.
1. Everyday, pick up a Spanish publication and read some of it. Some possible choices
include “People Magazine en Español”, “Variedades”, “Hola”, or other such publications.
These are available at local bookstores/magazine shops/etc. Car magazines, fashion
magazines, etc. are all good alternatives. It is essential to do some reading and to be
exposed to Spanish publications.
2. You can also go on the Internet and read articles in Spanish such as on-line newspapers,
magazines, and web sites. Many search engines are available in Spanish. If you click on or
type “video” at www.Yahoo.com or www.Google.com, you can find videos in Spanish that
will help with visual, audio and gestures in Spanish.
3. Have some daily contact with Univisión or other Spanish programming on television or
DVD. I recommend watching news programs such as “Primer Impacto,” or “Noticiero.” You
will see and hear speakers from all of the Spanish-speaking countries. “Tu Desayuno
Alegre,” is a morning talk show with music videos. I love “Sábado gigante” as it combines a
little bit of every type of show imaginable. There are also the “telenovelas,” if that interests
you. Additionally, there are many different game shows. You will need frequent contact over
the summer with Spanish language and cultures.
4. Listen to a variety of Spanish accents. Videos and DVDs are excellent resources, too, for
listening to Spanish. While watching your favorite DVD this summer, select to hear or watch
your DVD in the Spanish language. Watch the program and jot down some words or things
you don’t understand or want to learn. You probably will not understand everything, but over
time your understanding will increase. Another option is to record a show, then pick a 3-5
minute segment and keep rewinding it, working with it until you get most of what is going on.
You might like working with music videos or commercials when you do this at first.
5. Seek out opportunities to listen to “live” Spanish. There are community cultural events
and local churches that have activities and services in Spanish and local service
organizations that provide services to the Spanish-speaking community. You can help
others while helping yourself. Speak Spanish with family, friends, and co-workers. You may
be surprised at how many people in this area speak Spanish.
6. Listen to Spanish music. Visit local shops, department stores or download songs from the
Internet. You may even want to consider Podcasts available in Spanish. There are some
designed to teach Spanish as well as some for entertainment.
7. Buy an AP Spanish Language practice book. All are fine, as long as they include the
elements that are currently on the test. Any practice is better than none!
8. Check out and become familiar with the College Board Spanish Language and Culture
web site: http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/ap/sub_spanlang.html?spanlang
Here you can check out the themes of the AP exam that we will be covering as well as see
past exams and samples tests.
