Cuadernos de Gramática Española – Editorial Difusión

Grammar book suitable for Beginners students

If you are on one of the Beginners 1, 2 or 3 courses and want to practise more at home, this is the book you must have!
We especially like the CD that comes with it which will help you with pronunciation, listening and speaking – areas that most students would agree are very tricky to practice at home. The 18 topics are divided into:

Sonidos, letras y ortografía – Sounds & spelling
Los numerales – Numerals
Los sustantivos – Nouns
Los adjetivos – Adjectives
Los artículos – Articles
Los demostrativos – Demonstratives – You can download a sample unit from Editorial Difusión here.
Los posesivos – Possessives
Los cuantificadores – Quantifiers
La interrogación – Questions
Los pronombres personales – Personal pronouns
Las preposiciones – Prepositions
El presente del indicativo – The Present Tense
El infinitivo – The Infinitive
El pretérito perfecto – The Preterite Perfect
El pretérito indefinido – The Indefinite
Las construcciones impersonales – The Impersonal
Ser, estar, hay – Verb to Be
Los conectores – Conectors

The book can be used as self study. Students can find the answers and transcriptions of the dialogues in the CD at the back of the book. The book can also be used as a follow up of our classes. Please let the teacher know you have the book so she can guide you on how to use it and what topics would benefit you more. Otherwise, the student can look for the topic he is interested in and work on it independently. The student doesn’t have to follow the order the topics are presented in the book.

In the Mundo Plurilingüe exercises the student has the chance to make a comparison between Spanish and English or any other languages he speaks.
