U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speakers
Part 2
In last week’s blog, I talked about Fisher Hill’s new series U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speakers which will be available later this spring. This week’s blog has the Table of Contents for U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speaker Book 1. Next blog will have the Table of Contents for U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speakers Book 2. These two workbooks help Spanish speakers pass the English writing, reading and civics portions of the U.S. Citizenship Exam. To pass these three sections, you must be able to write correctly one sentence dictated by the interviewer; read out loud correctly one sentence given by the interviewer; and answer six out of ten of the civics questions given by the interviewer. You will have three opportunities to write correctly a dictated sentence and three opportunities to read out loud correctly a sentence given by the interviewer.
U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speakers Book 1 will give Spanish speakers information to help pass the American Government questions on the Civics test. Book 1 also provides practice to help pass the reading and writing tests. U.S. Citizenship for Spanish Speakers Book 2 will give Spanish speakers information and practice to help pass the American History and Integrated Civics questions on the Civics test. Book 2 also provides practice to help pass the reading and writing tests. The Civics Test includes 100 questions about government, history and integrated civics. Applicants will be asked 10 questions. The Civics test is an oral test. One or more of the 10 civics questions may be about the current people holding different government offices. Applicants will need to know the names of these people holding the current government offices.
