Avoid at all costs!! November 30, 2009
By Iliana
I am a native speaker. I have a degree in linguistics. I have taught French, English and Spanish. I have been teaching Spanish in high school for the last 4 years. Unfortunately, I've had the "pleasure" of working with this book.

My biggest problem with this book is that the authors assume students will learn the way they did. They rely heavily on deductive learning, which is a critical thinking skill not present in the majority of students. Kids are presented with a lot of information and then, they are supposed to answer questions. How if they didn't even have an idea of what is going on? Many of the exercises don't have a clear purpose, as demonstrated by the following -and I quote from the Teacher's book- "When students are doing the activities, accept any answer that makes sense. The purpose is to have students use the new vocabulary, not to recall facts" This makes my students really anxious because they don't know what's expected from them. Gifted students find the exercises boring and unproductive. It isn't until the end of the chapter that vocabulary and grammar are explained. Why not explain and demonstrate from the beginning?

I also dislike how it devotes too much time on one subject (school- a total of 4 chapters!) but other topics of more relevance (like ordering food at a restaurant) have only one brief chapter cut in half and that is reintroduced later.

The book is organized more by grammatical topics rather than vocabulary. In my experience, the most effective way for students to learn and remember information is learning in a communicative approach.

The only salvageable part is the cultural readings. But paying $85 for a book that has just a few interesting cultural readings/activities is not worth it. I wish I could recommend books but I haven't had the chance to work with any others. I mostly supplement my classes with my own materials or some found on the internet.

Too early to tell August 28, 2010
By N. Gans
Amazon Verified Purchase
I received this book within a few days of ordering it. Very speedy, as usual with Amazon. The book was well-packaged (shrink wrapped), and arrived in perfect condition. I can't tell anything about the contents of the work book, since my son hasn't started using it yet.
