Fuentes, 5th Edition

FUENTES, is a two-volume intermediate Spanish program presenting an integrated skills approach to intermediate Spanish that develops both receptive and productive skills simultaneously. FUENTES is made up of FUENTES: CONVERSACI�N Y GRAM�TICA (FCG) and FUENTES: LECTURA Y REDACCI�N (FLR). Although FUENTES: CONVERSACI�N Y GRAM�TICA and FUENTES: LECTURA Y REDACCI�N are designed to be used together, they can also be used independently of each other. Each chapter in FUENTES: CONVERSACI�N Y GRAM�TICA, Fifth Edition focuses on theme, and grammar and vocabulary presentations that are based on language functions. The FUENTES program approach and philosophy: We learn by doing. By using the language to communicate original thoughts, in oral and written form, and by interacting with written texts and recorded conversations, students will acquire a high degree of proficiency. Skill integration promotes language development. Each skill reinforces the others; therefore, students learn to comprehend and produce language while practicing specific strategies for listening, reading, and writing.
