Each lesson is organized into color-coded strands that present new material in clear, comprehensible, and communicative ways. With a focus on authenticity, cultural immersion, and the seamless integration of text and technology, Spanish-language learning comes to life in ways that are meaningful to each and every student.
Teach Spanish in real-life context throughout every lesson.
Dynamic photos and illustrations present high-frequency vocabulary and grammar concepts in the text, supported by online vocabulary and grammar tutorials that assist students outside the classroom.
Learning and practice begins with activities that focus on recognition and comprehension, and continues with guided and transitional activities to reinforce and learn new vocabulary and grammar concepts in diverse formats.
Each lesson maintains a focus on the Spanish-speaking world, starting with cultural themes used to engage students, continuing with readings that enhance students’ cultural views, and videos that bring the culture to life.
Instructional and cultural videos reinforce the language for students, and include Viva’s Fotonovela episodes, Flash cultura, and Panorama cultural videos.
