Recommendations for Spanish I Textbooks
by Ron Scrogham
Nov 24, 2015
Our department plans to replace our Spanish I textbooks for high school. We have review copies of "Descubre," "Que chevere,"Asi de dice," and "Avancemos."

We have just begun the process of review.

I wonder if anyone my have opinions or recommendations about choosing a new novice-level Spanish textbook.

I would appreciate whatever suggestions you might have.

I've been retired for two years, but I like Asi se dice because it's survival situation oriented. I used Realidades and hated it. I looked at Descubre, but found the amount of new ma...See More
