Ogólny opis: 

Polish 404 is the first class in a three-quarter sequence of second year (intermediate) Polish. Students should be familiar with material covered in Polish 401-403. After the whole year's sequence students should be able to successfully handle uncomplicated communicative tasks and social situations: initiate, sustain, and close a general conversation, read simple connected texts, write short simple letters, postcards, diary entries, etc. The goal is to move from Novice Mid/High to Intermediate Mid/High level on the ACTFL Proficiency Scale.
