Recognizing the knowledge and skills gained in first-year Spanish, the "Fuentes" program builds students' language proficiency by systematically refining receptive and productive skills while encouraging students to compare, contrast, and develop an appreciation of Spanish-speaking cultures. Students gain confidence through a wealth of integrated-skills practice that not only promotes recycling of previously learned materials, but also motivates them to express, infer, and negotiate meaning in the context of real-life situations.The two volumes of this program are linked by language functions, vocabulary, and high-interest, relevant themes that serve to promote critical thinking and classroom discussion. "Conversacion y gramatica" focuses on the development of listening and speaking skills while building on first-year grammar concepts. "Lectura y redaccion" concentrates on the development of students' reading and writing skills through systematic practice and the presentation of a variety of cultural and literary selections. The two volumes may be used together or independently to meet course objectives.Unifying thematic focus between the volumes and ancillaries of the "Fuentes" program encourages students to examine topics from different perspectives.Expanding on first-year concepts, "Conversacion y gramatica" presents functions and supporting grammar with clear and concise explanations in English, usage examples in Spanish, and a series of activities--progressing from controlled to open-ended--that provides ample opportunity for self-expression and contextualized practice for pairs or groups.Enriching 70-minute Video Program correlates with the "Videofuentes" section in"Conversacion y gramatica," which offers pre-, while-, and post-viewing activities for each chapter. A corresponding "Videofuentes" activity in each chapter of "Lectura y redaccion" prompts discussion or writing.
