EntreCulturas 3: Communicate, Explore, and Connect Across Cultures is the third book in a ground-breaking Spanish language and culture textbook series. EntreCulturas 3 is designed for intermediate Spanish learners in high school. Level 3 presents project-based learning and rigorous tasks that hone learners skills. Students have the opportunity to engage with authentic texts and literature, experience IPAs with all modes of communication, reflect on knowledge learned, interact with students from different Spanish-speaking countries, and more, all while encompassing elements of AP^® skills. There are six units in EntreCulturas 3.

EntreCulturas 3, intermediate-low to intermediate-mid, provides:


Proficiency-Driven Pedagogy
The EntreCulturas series both vertically and horizontally articulates with target proficiency levels. Unit performance goals and essential questions align with the World Readiness Standards; and, formative and integrated performance assessments align with unit goals and essential questions. Activities and learning experiences support each unit's IPA. The sequence of activities and learning experiences move students to the next proficiency level. Students learn grammar and vocabulary through the dialogic and co-constructive strategies. Activities have communicative and intercultural reflections and can-do statements.


Authentic, Cultural Understanding
Authentic resources are included in each unit, including texts created by Spanish speakers for Spanish speakers. Each unit includes focus on a Spanish-speaking country, like Chile, Colombia, or Uruguay. Culturally relevant and linguistically authentic activities strengthen the student's confidence, enthusiasm, and interest in the Spanish language and culture, encouraging them to continue to pursue the study of this valuable language and culture. Level 3 goes beyond just the social topics usually covered at this level. It offers a more in-depth focus on current issues, including topics like digital citizenship, healthy lifestyles, sustainability, and more.


Preparation for Future Challenges
EntreCulturas 3 introduces AP/IB themes from the very beginning, setting the tone for not only the SAT in Spanish and the AP Spanish Language and Culture Exam, but a lifetime of language learning and exploration. After completion of EntreCulturas 3, Wayside recommends students continue with the publisher's Level 4 book for Pre-AP students, Tejidos.
