ReviewsThe chapter structure flows easily from one activity to the next. I really like the fact that all the activities are related to the topic to be studied! Usually the activity changes and becomes completely irrelevant to the topic just so that the grammar can be practiced. In Temas 2e you learn about the topic AND grammar with activities which are ALL relevant and related...this is GREAT!, I really like the Servicio comunitario section. It is extremely appropriate for what is happening on college/university campuses today. Community Service is a huge factor at my University (it is integrated from the First Year to the Final Year) and would help my program's Spanish courses to be more integrative and interdisciplinary., The chapter structure flows easily from one activity to the next. I really like the fact that all the activities are related to the topic to be studied! Usually the activity changes and becomes completely irrelevant to the topic just so that the grammar can be practiced. In Temas 2e you learn about the topic AND grammar with activities which are ALL relevant and related'this is GREAT!, One of the greatest features of this book is that it presents grammar within a context. This context is a dialog from the real world. Most of the time, students consider that we present grammar that is not used in the real world. However, this doesn't happen in this case., Unidad IV: CAMBIOS Y TRANSICIONES.7. Cambios y transiciones.Mi tierra querida. Es hora de partir. A establecer un nuevo hogar.8.

Desafios., Temas is an exciting way to teach language because it shows students the real life applications for what they are learning in the foreign language classroom. Temas integrates language and culture while teaching the four-skills, but more importantly, it prepares students for immediate interaction with the growing Hispanic population in the United States., The chapter structure flows easily from one activity to the next. I really like the fact that all the activities are related to the topic to be studied! Usually the activity changes and becomes completely irrelevant to the topic just so that the grammar can be practiced. In Temas 2e you learn about the topic AND grammar with activities which are ALL relevant and related…this is GREAT!, I like the extensive vocabulary phrase lists with accompanying translation in italics. The Preguntas y respuestas are a good re-enforcement exercise. They are a great help in the syntactical switches English speakers have. I have not seen this creativity in many books.
