Feature Summary
Extremely manageable in length and communicative in approach, this introductory Spanish program is ideal for schools that have a limited number of contact hours but still prefer a text that includes a broad variety of materials.
The essentials of Spanish (vocabulary and grammar) plus a focus on integrated culture make this the ideal text for a full beginning Spanish program or an intensive one-semester review course.
Clear, consistent vocabulary and grammar presentations help students manage the material without being overwhelmed and makes lesson-planning easier for instructors.
Exercises and activities progress from form-focused to communicative in nature. Material learned in earlier chapters is consistently recycled and reviewed.
Based on the best-selling Puntos de partida, the material in this text boasts over twenty years of proven reliability and class testing. This text really works!
