TICKETED PRE-CONFERENCE SESSION: The phase in for Checkpoint C of the Revised Learning Standards for World Languages begins in September, 2027. This workshop offers ideas and templates for designing a two-year Spanish curriculum for Checkpoint C focused on developing Intermediate Mid-High Proficiency. Following a brief overview of the nature of the learners and the proficiency goals of Checkpoint C, participants will examine two detailed thematic units to launch Level IV that will provide an engaging introduction to Checkpoint C. Participants will collaborate to brainstorm, sequence, and share possibilities for cultural contexts and thematic units to engage learners in extended sequences of proficiency growth, leading more students to the Seal of Biliteracy and beyond.
