The
Conversa workbooks are a combination of textbook and workbook and are
designed to introduce students to the most essential structures
(nouns, verbs, short sentences) in Spanish allowing them to
communicate in Spanish almost immediately. Gradually, through interconnected activities, students progress in a logical way to more
common structures that govern how Spanish is spoken and written. The
structures are introduced on the basis of how often they are used in
everyday Spanish.
Beautifully
designed, Conversa workbooks have great characters that the students
can relate to, fun and unexpected stories that will captivate the
students' imagination, a fresh and modern layout with amusing
illustrations.
