Writing

Writing moves toward the production

of more complex texts.

In Levels 1 and 2, writing is practiced at several points throughout

the unit:

In the

Comunicación

and

Todo junto

pages within the framework of

the Desafíos.

In the project.

Students are faced with increasingly more complex texts, which range

from writing simple lists (such as a shopping list), to more elaborate

texts, such as a diary entry, a script, or a travelogue.

In Levels 3 and 4, there is an additional composition included

and the students are required to create somewhat more complex

compositions: a character sketch, an essay, a short story, a report,

an opinion article, etc.

Through these activities, students have the opportunity to express

their ideas and become accustomed to formal and creative writing

in Spanish.
