The Cuaderno de práctica (Practice Book) is a downloadable document in PDF format with enabled form format (fillable).
Descubre Online games and activities are automatically scored and allow unlimited attempts. The Gradebook registers the grade after each attempt. Teachers can review a student’s attempts by clicking on the activity name and viewing the Teacher Dashboard.
IMPORTANT: Please note that each activity name is meant to keep the activities in relative order when using the Bulk Editing function. Without this, all activities for the entire course are listed in alphabetical order in the Gradebook and the Bulk Edit screen.
The Biblioteca temática (Thematic Library Readers) have three eBooks per unit with synchronized audio to address the needs of students at beginning, intermediate and advanced language proficiency levels.
