Communicative goals and Can-Do Statements, with goals review activities at the end of every lesson

By connecting the communicative goals and Can-Do Statements in almost every section in each lesson, students have the opportunity to check their understanding of the lesson’s communicative goals and identify any areas where they need further review and practice.

Interactive short films expand on lesson themes

Increased diversity in the Cortometraje section, including four films by female directors and film locations from across the Spanish speaking world. Three new authentic short films in lessons 5, 6, and 7.

New interactive grammar tutorials

New Interactive Grammar Tutorials feature la profesora, an amusing character who grabs students’ attention with her lighthearted approach to grammar. Each tutorial has one or two Quick Checks, which are pauses in the instruction to give students a chance to react to what has just been presented.
