Instructional approach

Encuentros takes students on an inductive language journey, breaking down each unit into four task-based mini lessons— Desafíos—focusing on a particular communicative skill related to the unit theme.

Graphic novel series
Modern, live-action, episodic video are designed to resemble a graphic novel. Students join the video characters as they take a cultural journey across the Spanish-speaking world.
Intercultural skill building
Strong emphasis on intercultural communicative skills and functions through clear labeling of the pedagogical “good stuff”, such as Essential Questions, AP® Themes, Can-Dos, ACTFL standards, and modes of communication.
Un chin de video
These YouTube-style videos feature two Dominican teenagers who show students un chin de (or, a little bit of) their lives in Santo Domingo. The videos are fun and colorful way for students to experience the target vocabulary for the whole unit in use in a cultural context without even realizing it.
