Welcome to the third edition of Mosaicas! With this Elementary Spanish program, the beginning classroom becomes a setting for true communication and cultural exchange. Its highly interactive approach combines the best elements of language instruction. The Mosaicos program is built on the foundation of interaction, communication, and culture. Its functional grammatical syllabus provides students with an understanding of the basics of the language in a clear and concise format. There are ample opportunities for practice in engaging activities that often use the student's own point of view as a point of departure, personalizing the language learning experience.

This unique media program features a new video, Fortunas, an Activity CD-ROM bound into every new copy of the text, the Companion Website™ at www.prenhall.com/mosaicos and a new Enfogue interactivo section which integrates the media program into every chapter.
