Elementary Portuguese

3 units

This course introduces students to the basics of Portuguese through culture-based learning. Students will learn elementary vocabulary and grammar, and develop basic listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Students will also learn about the different cultures of the Portuguese-speaking world. Each week is designed around a cultural theme and covers the language components pertinent to that cultural context. This course may not count toward the minor or major in Portuguese offered through the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures in the day school.
