Buon Viaggio in Italia (Italian Edition)

A year spent in Italy by foreign students provides the context for this beginner level text. The young people featured throughout the book attend an Italian high school and live with a typical family. Each chapter introduces new vocabulary through high interest readings and dialogues, and grammar concepts with clear, detailed explanation. Carefully designed exercises reinforce instruction and comprehension. Because Buon Viaggio in Italia was written specifically for American students, directions for all exercises are in English. Information about culture, customs, history and geography (in English and Italian) is integrated into each unit. The accompanying audio CD-ROM is coordinated to develop listening skills.
