Year 1 • Year 2 • Year 3 • Year 4
Take knowledge of grammar and culture to the next level
Brief, clear explanations of grammatical structures are followed by exercises moving from simple assimilation to more challenging manipulation of elements and communication. Each level aligns with ACTFL’s Five C goal areas and provides an in-depth review of grammatical topics, word study, and Spanish civilizations and culture. Exercises provide extensive oral practice as well as reinforcement through written responses including English-to-Spanish exercises intended to sharpen writing skills. The topical organization allows teachers maximum classroom flexibility.
Carefully controlled vocabulary ensures content comprehension as students practice and apply grammatical structures.
Comprehensive assessments include interpretive communication, interpersonal writing and speaking, presentation writing and speaking.
Years One to Three are available in two different formats.
- Workbook Format—consumable worktexts with write-on lines for student practice and comprehension.
- Review Text Format—6" x 9" texts designed for ease of study and reference in a proficiency-oriented communicative approach.
Answer Keys are available for use by teachers.
