Help your students track their growth and their performance towards proficiency with these new proficiency trackers, now available on our Learning Site. Available for both our Spanish series EntreCulturas, and our French series EntreCultures, you can use the trackers by downloading and printing them from the Learning Site or assign them online for each unit and for the entire year. If you are a Learning Site pro, find these under the Content tab of your course for EntreCulturas and EntreCultures, in the Proficiency Resources. Not familiar with our Learning Site yet? Request a sample now and see everything we have to offer. https://waysidepublishing.com/about/request-a-sample Watch this brief tutorial on how to find and use this new tool:

The new Triángulo APreciado is here! Watch coauthors Lou Baskinger and Frank Masel talk about what inspired them to create this groundbreaking resource for advanced Spanish learners and what they hope teachers—and students—will get out of it.
"I’d ask that we consider all the countless small actions we can take as advocates to be just as important as the big actions we’re taking right here [at Language Advocacy Day]. And I’d like to invite all of us to adopt an ongoing posture of language advocate--and through constant, ongoing actions as often as possible, I hope we move from language advocates to seeing ourselves as language activists." -Dr. Jay Ketner at Language Advocacy Day 2019
Breakout sessions happening now at #LAD19!
Finishing up his welcome speech at #LAD19, Jay Ketner encourages us to consider how small actions can have big effects. “Why should everyone care about languages?”
Elizabeth Zwanziger speaks up for languages to help students connect with others from different cultures and perspectives. Why do you speak up for languages? #LAD19
"I speak up for languages because language is the key to understanding everything about life." —Lou Baskinger, coauthor of Triangulo APreciado #LAD19 #speakupforlanguages
