Breaking The Spanish Barrier Level 1b: En Camino

Description

The original Breaking the Spanish Barrier Level 1 (Beginner) has been reorganized and expanded for students who prefer a more deliberate, comfortable pace with more review along the way. Lessons begin with cultural content highlighting a Spanish-speaking part of the world. Your learner is instantly engaged!

Students will use their own Student Edition workbook and Online Access for every lesson, and a parent will want the Answer Key. The course can be done independently using the 4-day lesson planning guide in the Homeschool Package.
