World Languages K-12
JUNE 2022
World Languages Highest Goal
Here in Pasco County, we want to help every student develop his/her skills in every language domain (Listening, Reading, Speaking, and Writing), starting as soon as they join one of our foreign language courses. We will accomplish this by design engaging lessons that will purposely target every receptive and productive skill.
World Languages Philosophy
The World Language Acquisition Philosophy at our district follows four immersion-related goals:
- to achieve proficiency in the target language (listening, speaking, reading, and writing),
to acquire comparable English Language Arts skills in our foreign language courses,
to reach cultural competency in surface features and deep features of cultural perspectives, practices, and products,
to gain mastery in our content areas.
