The AP Spanish Language and Culture Exam (early May 2027 ) is designed to test your skills in order to see how well they compare with what you would have to do in a third year college course. The exam will test all of the major language skills: listening, reading comprehension, speaking, and writing in addition to general cultural knowledge of the Hispanic World. We welcome you to this rewarding and challenging course and to this journey exploring six major themes of study.  \nThemes for AP Spanish Language and Culture  \n\n| 1. Beauty and Aesthetics\u003Cbr>2. Global Challenges\u003Cbr>3. Science and Technology\u003Cbr>4. Families and Communities\u003Cbr>5. Personal and Public Identities\u003Cbr>6. Contemporary Life | |\n| --- | --- |\n\nRationale for the Summer work  \nStudents registered on AP Spanish Language and Culture are required to complete summer assignments before starting the class. Summer work is an important grade for MP1 . The assignments have been selected to continue developing your communication skills in Spanish.  \nGeneral Directions: Read the assignments description carefully. Each assignment has some required activities. You may use dictionaries [https://dle. rae.es](https://dle. rae.es), grammar books Learn Spanish Grammar at [StudySpanish.com](StudySpanish.com), etc. Local libraries and native Spanish speakers are excellent sources. You may enjoy watching videos or television programs with other AP Spanish students and discussing the activities. Sharing your opinions with each other is encouraged. However, your work is still yours, not the other students. You may have the same conversations but your logs will be different, since each one of you will report what you learned and talked about during the conversations. You are required  \nto abide by the honor code that forbids cheating, lying and stealing, both within the academic world and as members of the general society. In other words, we expect that you complete all assignments on your own, without the help of a person or translator. Your work should represent what you are capable of doing using all resources you have at hand, grammar and notes from previous studies. This work is to assess your skills upon starting the new school year. You will receive a major test grade for this work on MP1.  \nClass NOTE: These summer assignments will not take too much time each week, but the work should be spread out throughout the summer rather than trying to cram everything into a few days before classes begin.  \nAssignment \\# 1: Familiarize yourself with the exam. Become familiar with EVERYTHING that is published on the AP website about this exam. Create your own account with a personal email if you don’t have one already.  \nAP Spanish Language and Culture – AP Students  \na) Look at the tips that the College Board suggests for you:  \nAP World Language and Culture Exam Tips – AP Students | College Board  \nb) Please, write a short summary (70-80 words) in Spanish of what you learned about this exam. Include some ideas of how you will be able to study best over the course of the year. (25 points) . I recommend using a composition book but you may use Notability if it helps you be more organized.  \n  AP Spanish Language and Culture Course   \nAssignment \\# 2: You will read 6 articles in Spanish from a Spanish language newspaper or magazine. You may choose articles that are interesting to you and appropriate for school. Please do not choose more than two articles on the same topic. You must be able to relate the articles to each of the six AP themes (ex. Science and Technology) . These articles must be written in Spanish and may not be translated into English. Prepare a short summary in Spanish of each article (7-10 sentences) . Make a list of important vocabulary words (5-8) and their definitions in Spanish.
