Description
For two-semester or three-semester courses in Elementary Spanish.
Wake up to the new, 5th edition of Arriba! With each new edition, more and more instructors discover that Arriba! offers a solid, proven approach to reaching communicative objectives. Through its flexible approach -- one that allows instructors to adapt it to their own teaching styles and goals -- Arriba! ensures success for both students and instructors. Built on a balance of solid grammar and communication skills, the eclectic, balanced approach of Arriba! enables students to receive the broad foundation that they need to succeed in Intermediate courses and beyond. Culture frames and infuses every chapter giving students a doorway into the cultures of the Spanish speaking world and bringing fun and excitement into your classroom. Rich in pedagogy and supported by carefully integrated supplementary materials, this complete and versatile program is the result of years of development and class testing. Now, more than ever, Arriba! brings the Spanish-speaking world to your students and gives them the tools and motivation to thrive in your classroom and the world at large.
Features
¡Arriba! understands that there are various teaching styles that create a successful learning environment, thus it is flexible enough for instructors to draw on particular structures that reflect their personal style and approach.
Offers a wide range of closed to open ended exercises-and the option to decide whether or not to use them in class.
The thorough and clear grammar explanations in ¡Arriba! lead students, in a gradual and explicit way, to build to more realia-based, communicative, task-based and information gap activities.
Culture is not an add-on in ¡Arriba! ; each lesson is set within a culturally authentic framework, with consistent references made throughout the chapter to the target country.
¡Arriba! remains current with the advances in teaching and learning methodologies by offering instructors and students a wide range of supplements, ranging from print, audio, visual, web-based, and on-line course management.
New To This Edition
Communicative objectives become crystal clear! As with the previous edition, communicative objectives are stated clearly in the chapter opener. Also, at the end of Primera and Segunda parte, ¿Cuánto sabes tú? boxes serve as a form of self-assessment that reminds students of these objectives while assisting them in determining how well they have mastered the material. A new instructor supplement, In-Class Communicative Projects, offers additional communicative activities for the classroom. Each communicative objective listed in the chapter openers has a corresponding communicative project. These activities are not only a unique resource for enhancing students’ communication skills; they are also constructed to be highly engaging and motivational.
The fifth edition is accompanied by an entirely new video program:
A new pronunciation section in each chapter, entitled Letras y sonidos, helps students with pronunciation of new words as well as those introduced in previous chapters.
A new, more visual layout in the vocabulary sections aids and motivates vocabulary learning. Small drawings are used to convey the meaning of many individual vocabulary words, lessening dependence on English translations. Larger, more complex drawings are also provided so that students can visualize the context in which new vocabulary words could be used.
The Annotated Instructor’s Edition of ¡Arriba!, fifth edition has a new format with a slightly larger trim size and slightly reduced student pages. This format accommodates the greatly increased extent and breadth of annotations (now more than 1000!) that are now placed outside the margins of the page for greater clarity. Annotations are divided into distinct categories for ease of reference and use, such as pre-activity, warm-up, implementation, expansion, etc.

Reviews
Ritmos
- This is one of the reasons why I finally decided to go with ¡Arriba!: music captivates students’ interest and it is a great part of culture.
- Ana Almonte, Hudson Valley Community College
Taller
- I especially like the Taller and think the students are writing at a higher level than in the past.
- Mary Newcomer McKinney, Texas Christian University
Grammar
- I like the Aplicación exercises, especially the readings which integrate the grammar structure as well as the culture.
- Angelina Craig-Florez, Columbia University
- The clarity and conciseness of the grammatical explanations is one of the best characteristics of this book. Grammar explanations are always accurate.
- Roberto Fuertes-Manjón, Midwestern State University
Organization
- The chapters are undoubtedly easy to teach due mainly to the organizational structure.
- Roberto Fuertes-Manjón, Midwestern State University
- Grammar and vocabulary are simple and easy to understand by students who do not have any knowledge of language structure.
- Luis E. Latoja, Columbus State Community College
- The layout is easy to follow by both instructor and student. When you open ¡Arriba! it does not overwhelm you by complicated or confusing organization.
- Mikela Zhezha-Thaumanavar, Western Michigan University
- Contains a solid, logical progression of information. Good variety of activities.
- Neal Anthony Messer, Virginia Military Institute
Companion web site
- The companion web site is THE BEST, especially the review and practice tests. A student commented today on how well he liked the web site.
- Shannie S. Jessup, Surry Community College
Culture
- The culture sections appear quite useful, unlike many other textbooks I have encountered.
- Albert Shank, Scottsdale Community College
- I think the authors have done a great job of integrating the cultural content into many of the activities, even in the grammar sections.
- Kathleen Wheatley, University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee
- I like the art work and inclusion of famous Hispanics like Carlos Santana and Pablo Picasso, Frida & Diego. It gives me an opportunity to expand on the cultural aspects.
- Shannie S. Jessup, Surry Community College
Páginas section
- Reading selections are very useful and appropriate
- Albert Shank, Scottsdale Community College
Approach
- I think it does an excellent job of incorporating all four skills along with meaningful cultural exercises, musical exercises, and video.
- Albert Shank, Scottsdale Community College
- We are pleased with the focus on all four skills and the strong cultural component.
- Kathleen Wheatley, University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee
Teacher Annotations
- I like the suggestions and teaching tips. I mentor our teaching assistants and international scholars, who usually have no teaching experience or pedagogy courses. The suggestions get them thinking more creatively.
- Mary Stevens, SUNY New Paltz
