Carson Dellosa Skills for Success Spanish Workbook, Parts of Speech, Grammar, Sentence Building Skills, and More, Middle and High School Classroom or Homeschool Curriculum

Pros-has logical progression of information, well organized -the spanish level is more advanced than most other workbooks available on amazon (from what I've experienced) -Provides sentence and grammar practice -Instructions are provided in english -It has a clear, concise answer key -It provides brief but understandable explanation of verb conjugations accompanied by charts and practice - The lessons are quick Cons-the book is entirely in black and white -it does not offer any help with pronunciation of spanish words in any way -It does not provide cultural enrichment of the language taught -The format isn't dry, but it's not really fun either. A bit bland. -Although the spanish is advanced compared to other books, it's still very basic spanish sentence formations and vocabulary.

I'm an adult who started practicing Spanish and already had a very basic understanding of the language. I could get by as a tourist in a Spanish speaking country. I've decided to become more fluent and have been using Duo Lingo and this book has been a useful reference for things that might need explanations that Duo Lingo isn't going to give. It has the pronunciation of the alphabet, numbers and fractional/ordinals, telling time, little games and a glossary and answer key in the back. The pages are perforated and easy to photocopy if you want multiple chances to practice without using up the page on the first try. Good book!

good but it has a few errors, i think that instead of "é" they were supposed to write "él"

I purchased this workbook to use in conjunction with various videos from YouTube and my own background for homeschooling my 9th grader in Spanish Level 1. It was a great resource and used logical progression of skill items. My only complaint is that there is no 2nd book to follow on its heels, which I would have used for Spanish Level 2 next year.

I am an adult learning Spanish from scratch. I have a daily tutor and am using a textbook to learn chapter by chapter. If I had it all to do over again, I would complete this simple, fast, and clear workbook before I did anything else. It is so well written. I'm going to look for other materials by Cynthia Downs, the author. I am an elementary school teacher and trusted the Carson Dellosa brand. It did not disappoint. This workbook allows you to complete the specific exercise and fills in vocabulary you need so you're not flipping to the glossary or using google translate (which interrupt the flow of learning).

This book is fantastic! I've been working with my kids (ages 6 & 8) all semester on Spanish and I think this book will be a good next step. It would've honestly been a good starting book even. I had to pull from all kinds of books to teach them what this book has outlined.

As a parent, I'm thrilled with the Carson Dellosa Skills for Success Spanish Workbook for Middle School. It's engaging, well-structured, and perfect for my child's language development. The exercises are age-appropriate and support their learning journey effectively. Learning Spanish is now exciting and easy with this workbook!

I am a veteran Spanish teacher and am currently using this book to tutor a rising Spanish 2 student over the summer. I like that it includes so many topics and the practice is fine and easy to build upon as needed. However, there are a lot of mistakes that are common for English speakers to make. They need a better editor! I have only worked through a little over half of the book so far, but I’m including some photos with the corrections I have made for my student that show some of these mistakes. I recommend using caution when using this book as it isn’t quite all right. Plus, it often uses more English vocabulary than traditional Spanish words- like “los shorts” instead of “los pantalones cortos.”

Better than my Spanish profesora, grammar rules are very simply explained. Super effective in understanding.

love this book

Good info and exercises to help learn Spanish

Thank you. I have also bought the elementry grade. These two will compliment the learning and teaching for my students. Love the simplicity and the ability to make copies for students. The black and white is helpful.

Nothing to add really
