Kontakte: A Communicative Approach: Arbeitsbuch - Softcover
This best-selling German text is based on and inspired by the Natural Approach, pioneered by Tracy D. Terrell. With it, students learn German through communicative contexts with an emphasis on the four skills as well as cultural competence, with grammar functioning as an aid to language learning, rather than as an end in itself. The abundance of interesting activities and readings in "Kontakte" ensure that students are exposed to rich language input, critical to language acquisition.
