Five (5) points will be deducted if when students leave early or come to class late. Oral activities will be part of class participation. Students will speak Spanish during the activities and total participation points will depend on the involvement and use of Spanish in class. Homework Students should plan to spend ten hours a week studying vocabulary and grammar from the text, as well as reading the assigned pages from the play Don Juan Tenorio. Homework includes practicing speaking Spanish with native speakers. All material on the course syllabus should be studied at home as well. An ongoing homework assignment is rereading the assigned chapters in Don Juan Tenorio that have been read in class. There will not be time in class to read the entire work. Therefore, it is expected that students will complete the readings at home and be prepared to discuss the chapters.

9 La Composición El Siglo XIX Don Juan Tenorio por José Zorrilla Your composition should contain the following information, at least one paragraph about each of the five topics. 1. Cómo fue el siglo XIX? Una introducción 2. Goya el artista su vida y obras 3. José Zorrilla, el autor 4. La trama y los personajes de Don Juan Tenorio 5. La conclusión y su opinión (double points) This composition must be in your own words. Plagiarized work will receive a grade of zero for the project. Keep your use of Spanish at the intermediate level. It is best to express yourself in Spanish, rather than try to write in English first and then translate. Grading will be based on content and grammar. Your conclusion will receive double points, so put some effort into it. If you are absent on days when we work on the composition in class, you are responsible to complete the assignment on your own. Some class time will be allowed to write first drafts and revisions for this composition. If absent, you will need to complete the composition on your own time as homework. This composition is due on the date of the final exam. You will read your composition to your classmates for the final exam. La maja vestida por Goya SPA 203, Spring 2011, 9

10 DON JUAN TENORIO Oral Presentations 1. Reenact a scene from the play: For example: En la Hostería del Laurel, enfrente de la casa de doña Ana, en el convento, en la casa de don Juan, en el cementerio, la cena con don Gonzalo 2. Write a script with your group. Practice your lines. If you read your lines, the highest grade possible on the presentation will be a "C." The goal is to speak Spanish, not read it. 3. Each group must turn in one copy of the script before the presentation. 4. Visuals, costumes, props must be used! Be creative. 5. Time: presentations should last between 10 and 15 minutes. (Individual presentations - 5 minutes) 6. Groups will be formed in class. 7. Some class time for practice will be given in class. 8. If you are not able to work with a group, you may do an individual presentation, such as a speech by don Juan, doña Inés reading don Juan's love letter, or give us a commentary on a portion of the play. 9. Make sure that you will have time to practice outside of class. Exchange phone numbers with members of your group. Plan a time to practice. 10. If you are absent the day of the presentations, the show will go on. We will have a volunteer read the lines of the person who is absent, so the script is very important. 11. Each participant of your group should have equal speaking parts, don't let one person dominate the scene. It's okay to change the scene a bit from the original to accommodate your needs. 12. If you are absent, you may present your part in the next class meeting, with a reduction of 10% for your grade.
