About this title

Synopsis

The writer's manual has three sections: gramatica, situaciones, and redaccion. Gramatica reviews the verbal and lexical structures of Spanish and has exercises that progress from discrete point to open-ended. Situaciones offers two models for building creative dialogues to strengthen vocabulary and proficiency development. Redaccion continues the editing assigment explored in the text. The manual also has six appendices including ACTFL guidelines for writing proficiency, punctuation and diacritics, numbers, abbreviations, and verb conjugations. An answer key for the discrete point items is also included.
