Grade 7 and 8 LOTE Spanish/French LOTE Checkpoint A is a course designed for first level Spanish or French students. It usually begins in Grade 7. Our goal is to help students develop meaningful communication in the target language through listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students are presented with opportunities to learn, practice and use the target language in the context of daily life and situations. Students learn to communicate by using simple phrases and sentences. Grade 7 is assessed with a local exam. It prepares students for 8th grade, where the final assessment is the New York State Proficiency Exam.
