De Pelicula!: Spanish Conversation through Film (Spanish Edition)

By Mary McVey-Gill, María-Paz Haro, Deana M. Smalley, et al.

Based on the pioneering text Cinema for Spanish Conversation, De Pelicula uses recent feature films with a PG or PG-13 rating to build Spanish language skills in listening, speaking, and reading. The text also provides a unique method to explore the cultural concepts depicted in the films. As with the parent text, De Pelicula provides a context for listening to the film through previewing exercises, background information, vocabulary, cultural material, and post-viewing exercises, including student exercises to be done in small groups. This version covers eight films and may be used as a primary or ancillary text in fourth year high school courses, for community college courses -- especially those language courses taught in the evening -- or in single-semester courses at most colleges. All films are new to this edition and come from a range of Spanish-speaking countries, All may be easily obtained for classroom viewing or language labs, or for students to purchase or rent on their own.

Justo a tiempo

Me llegó a tiempo parece interesante por lo que he ojeado mas no sé si su estructura se adapte para mi clase de AP Español. Cuando ya lo use en clase ya les cuento.

Great choice of movies...

A great choice of movies. Plenty of work to do, the questions are easy to understand, the descriptions of the movies before really helped me to understand the movie. :)
