Native Language 3 is a course that offers a progression from the NLA 2 and a continuance of those processes that emphasize higher attainment of Spanish language art skills in reading, speaking, writing, and listening. This fully integrated program continues to develop the students’ mastery of these skills with a greater concentration in grammar and its usage as well as writing and vocabulary development. Students are encouraged to develop deeper competence skills through expository and creative writing. This program presents, as part of its curriculum, a study of linguistics and structure and a history of the Spanish language including an emphasis on the Spanish/Hispanic/Latino culture.
