The core of this proficiency-based worktext is more than 250 expressions that help students learn conversational "survival" Spanish. In the first part of the book, students learn the phrases and practice them in fun activities and games. The second part contains situational exercises for students to practice using the expressions correctly in various contexts. An appendix lists the phrases for quick reference.
Al Corriente is a great book for any level of Spanish. It gives the student real Spanish phrases that they can actually use in everyday speech.
Why I USE this book often!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
As a teacher of Spanish I have found this book to be a great classroom resource especially to prepare my students for the real life situations in authentic settings. The phrases and expressions are culled from daily exchanges in the target language. It is the use of these expressionns that set my students apart.... they seem MORE fluent because they can use the language like a native speaker! 4th grade worksheets don't impress me much to respond to the other reviewer of this book. I teach communication... this book is an excellent classroom tool! ARRIBA!
