Curriculum Guide Seventh Grade World Language
Grade 8 Prepared by:
Karen Andros and Caterina Viscomi
Eighth Grade World Language (Grade 8) Introduction: The Eighth Grade World Language course is a requirement for all students in the State of New Jersey and Belleville Middle School. The course is typically taught to 8th grade students over the course of one year. In the 8th grade World Language curriculum, students will concentrate on preparing students for the high school World Language program. Upon successful completion of the year, students will be prepared to enter World Language I in high school. This curriculum is aligned with both the 2009 New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards and the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts. The document specifically cross-references the four 21st Century themes and primary inter-disciplinary connections. This document is a tool that will provide an overview as to what to teach, when to teach it, and how to assess student progress. As well, with considerations made for altered pacing, modifications, and accommodations; this document is to be utilized for all students enrolled in this course, regardless of ability level, native language, or classification. It is meant to be a dynamic tool that we, as educators, will revise and modify as it is used during the course of the school year. Mapping/Sequence: The curriculum is written following the parameters of Understanding by Design. The document is written as a series of units containing established transfer goals, enduring understandings, essential questions, and the necessary skills and knowledge a student must attain in a school year. Each unit also stipulates both required and suggested activities and assessments. Teachers are expected to design lessons that will meet the requirements within this curriculum; however, there is flexibility is how they choose to meet these demands. Pacing: The Eighth Grade World Language curriculum is divided into four sections. Each section provides a time frame that averages six weeks in length. Resources: Electronic and text resources are listed in each unit. Teachers will be able to access the curriculum document on the district website. Textbook: Board Approved Textbook
Established Goals: New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards http://www.state.nj.us/education/cccs/2009/ http://www.corestandards.org/the-standards/english-language-arts-standards Overarching Understandings: 1. Effective communication requires knowing how, when, and why to say something to someone. 2. An ability to communicate in another language fosters an appreciation of cultural similarities and differences and an understanding of my place in the world. 3. Learning other languages and exploring their cultures enables an individual to interact within our global community and beyond the classroom Skills acquired in one language support, reinforce, and develop skills in other languages and disciplines.

Through language study, they will make connections with other content areas, compare the language and culture studied with their own and participate in home and global communities. STRAND A – Interpretive Mode of communication: Students demonstrate understanding of spoken and written communication within appropriate cultural contexts. Examples of this kind of “one-way” reading or listening include cultural interpretations of printed texts, videos, online texts, movies, radio and television broadcasts, and speeches. 7.1.NM.A.1: Recognize familiar spoken or written words and phrases contained in culturally authentic materials using electronic information sources related to targeted themes. 7.1.NM.A.2: Demonstrate comprehension of simple, oral and written directions, commands, and requests through appropriate physical response. 7.1.NM.A.3: Recognize a few common gestures and cultural practices associated with the target culture. 7.1.NM.A.4: Identify familiar people, places, and objects based on simple oral and/or written descriptions. 7.1.NM.A.5: Demonstrate comprehension of brief oral and written messages using age-level appropriate culturally authentic materials on familiar topics.
