Level 3 / Intermediate Low — Intermediate Mid
Overview
Level 3 presents project-based learning and rigorous tasks that hone learners’ skills. Learners will have the opportunity to engage with authentic texts and literature, experience IPAs with all modes of communication, and more, all while encompassing elements of AP® skills.
The EntreCulturas program is all about teaching novice to intermediate students the Spanish language through the lens of interculturality, so they can discover appropriate ways to interact with others whose perspectives may be different from their own.
The educator-author team considered a variety of learner and educator styles in the backward design of the series. The program integrates all of the 2017 ACTFL World-Readiness Standards, and aligns with or exceeds every state's language standards. Content includes IB® and AP® task types and themes without compromising on our commitment to empower each learner to communicate in the real world. Units are clearly organized with ample strategies and support offered in the textbook, on the Learning Site, and in a constantly growing community of proficiency practitioners.
Every level of EntreCulturas includes strength-based strategies for engaging heritage speakers. For blended courses with heritage learners of varying modality strengths, EntreCulturas 3 and 4 are packed with opportunities to empower heritage and native speakers, identify each learner's progress, customize assignments, and teach to the individual.
