BlueBell Homeschool Spanish Curriculum is based on The National Standards For Foreign Language established by ACTFL.
The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Language (ACTFL) is an internationally recognized authority on educational approaches to foreign languages. Besides providing a frame for research and methodology, one of their main objectives is to encourage the American government to promote FL programs. FL requirements in the USA are not as much of a priority as in the rest of Western countries, where at least one foreign language is mandatory for about 8-12 years of education.

The ACTFL standards work well for our Homeschool Spanish Curriculum because:

• Spanish becomes active: students use Spanish for communicative tasks.
• Spanish cultural perspectives are incorporated through activities and the interaction with a native Spanish instructor.
• Spanish language is not presented as the main subject, but as a tool to connect to diverse contents.
• BlueBell Homeschool Spanish study files and concept maps are a point of reference and comparison to learn more about English as well.
• BlueBell Homeschool Spanish curriculum is inspired on the objective of extending the learning of the language through interaction with other students and Spanish speakers. Our goal is to convey the concept of Spanish as a live and dynamic language that will always reward learners with growth.
