The pages contain a balanced mix of text, student writing space, and images (173 pgs, pb.)
There are 31 chapters with the suggested pacing of one chapter/lesson per week. Vocabulary covered includes:greetings, friends, family, house, manners, animals, colors, numbers, body, food, and weather. There is a support website where kids can play vocabulary games in Spanish and another site for parents to get guidance for the program. The Teacher Edition includes the student book exercise answers, plus parental tips (147 pgs, pb).
