How many out there are using the QC textbook? How are you pacing level 1? We got to 4B in term 1 and the plan was 8B for term 2? We are on a 4X4 Block. How far do others plan to get in the QC1 textbook in level 1. Thanks for sharing!

Daniel HansonThere is World Language Corner as well. I got an advertisement for it on Facebook, but have not finished registering for it. I would like to know more about it first. If anyone knows anything about it, please share.
Hi Marilyn, I teach 7th and 8th grade Spanish in an independent school in VA. Have you considered Avancemos? A few years ago, I used an older version, and it was very much like En espanol. After that, I was teaching lower grades, and other teachers adopted Descubre. One year in, and still not quite sold, but it's okay. There are a lot of online materials. I don't know anything about the other two series you mentioned. Suerte!
Our district bought these novels for our upper level kids and I haven't had time to incorporate it into the curriculum. Has anyone had any luck with this novel? Do the kids receive it well? Problems with it? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Hola Mo Prof, I've always wanted to purchase and use the novel. Students would easily get in to the subject matter, and mine get bored with Pobre Ana and Patricia va a California.
Does anyone have an extra Exprésate Level 1 DVD Tutor that you do not need and are willing to sell? I am in need of one and was wondering if anyone had an extra. Thanks!

I am wanting my students to read in Spanish but didn't want to do the Pobre Ana. They are in the 8th grade. I remember years ago a school writing a version of Twilight but I can't find the copy. Any help? Any ideas for book studies more or less?

It sounds like they've been a big hit in other classes. I ordered some this year but haven't gotten to use them yet, so I can't quite speak from experience!

Soy profesora de inglés en un colegio de primaria. Este año me gustaría llevar a cabo video links con algún cole de habla inglesa, de tal manera que motive a los alumnos a interactuar con el idioma inglés y en el caso del otro colegio con el idioma español.
Si alguien estuviera interesado por favor poneros en contacto. Un saludo

I haven't posted in here for quite a few years, and thought to try to come back to ask this question. I first started lurking here my first year of teaching, and now I'm in year 7. I'm still learning though! We (county district) recently adopted the EMC "Que Chevere" textbook series, began talking about IPAs, etc etc. Lots of buzz words with no clue how to do it. Sound familiar to anyone?? Anyway, with this push towards proficiency, performance assessments, and all that goes with it, I've started doing reading about more up to date teaching styles, particularly the comprehensible input stuff. I find it odd that I can find tons of research about why it works, tons of teachers bragging about how their students are more amazing than everyone else's... but can't seem to find and solid information on how to actually do it. What little I've found leaves me concerned that, well, I wouldn't be able to follow our new curriculum (which unsurprisingly is built around our new "fantabulous" textbooks. Yes, sarcasm). Also that it doesn't seem like students get as much language (vocab) out of it. But again, not a lot of info about how it actually works. So I was wondering... anyone have any experience or opinions about the matter?

And lots of passionate teachers responding to questions. E.g. tcitprsaustralia Cheers, Sab

Gracias! He leído su información y hay tantas cosas útiles para todos los maestros, no solo los que quieren enseñar online.
Es muy generoso de su parte. Espero que hay más maestros aqui que aprovechen de su trabajo y mil gracias por compartirlo con nosotros.
