The Complete Book of Spanish (English and Spanish Edition) Review
I have been searching for a workbook to use with Junior High students just beginning Spanish. This is not the book!
The consumable workbook states it is for grades 1-3 and it is definitely so. I had hoped that an older new Spanish student would be able to use it but it is too babyish for that.
The pages are filled with big coloring book type pictures and students are asked to connect a line from ten English words to the Spanish word. Or a page of learning numbers will have six problem, the numeral is written and the student is asked to circle that number of monkeys, birds etc. There are coloring pages for going over color word.
The book covers:
numbers
alphabet
parts of speech
expressions
days of the month
colors
food
animals
clothes
body
family
classroom objects
I like the learning cards at the back that can be cut out and laminated for learning and review. The Spanish is on one side, English on the other.
There are also some pages that can be laminated and put up around the room showing for example, a face with all its parts labeled or a page with clothing and the various pieces named in Spanish.
If you are not familiar with Spanish but would like to teach it, this is a great resource as every Spanish word is translated into English for you.

Customer Reviews
Helpful for students learning spanish - Vivek Gupta -
My daughter is a 2nd grader and they have a Spanish once a week and incorporate some spanish into their classroom. We recently got this book to supplement her class work and find that it is helpful and fun for her to use this book. She enjoys doing the activities and it is helping increase her comprehension and vocabulary and that is exactly what we were looking for. I'd recommend it for children learning Spanish.
Sweet - M. Vrieze -
Pros:
Teaches Beginner Spanish
Activities: Word Finds, Coloring, etc.
Has songs and chants at the end
Good way to practice Beginner Spanish
Cons:
Geared for little children so only good for those who aren't too proud to use something for little kids.
Can be used only once unless the pages are copied
The answers are in the back so cheating can occur
Doesn't have pronunciation so would have to know how to say the words.
Good Basic Book - S. Padilla -
I have been using this book. It is very basic and has lots of activites for each new set of words. Even though it is geared towards young children, I have enjoyed using it to learn vocabulary words. I do wish it had more conversational words/phrases but for basic vocabulary it's good.
