Feature Summary

  • Authentic materials are used to practice all four skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing.

  • Every unit and chapter is established around a set of proficiency functions that are spiraled throughout the text, giving additional practice to the more frequent functions. The functions are sequenced according to the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines.

  • Grammar explanations are in English, followed by a number of contextualized exercises for student practice. Material is recycled to allow for additional student practice.

  • Communicative activities—many based on realia—are designed to help students work together cooperatively in class.
