  A: Hi Veronica, Thanks for your question. The print book does not include a CD with PDF pages.
Q: Are all the prompts in English or Spanish or do you have a choice depending on the level you teach?

  A: Hello Heidi,
  
  Good question. The overview of each chapter (2 pages) is all in Spanish, set up similarly to an encyclopedia entry. It is followed with a picture or resource taken from that country, with 5-10 comprehension questions all in Spanish. The rest of each chapter is in English, with some Spanish modismos explained within. It can be adapted to low levels, as much of the products, dances, practices, festivals, landmarks, etc. are repeated and many more are cognates. You could give them a commonly used term sheet and they could keep it from chapter to chapter.

  A: Hello Heidi,
  
  For older kids, the activities after the picture/comprehension activity, are all in English. They could be translated into Spanish, making it about level 3. If you have emerging students at level 2, perhaps make it all in Spanish, but make a bookmark key of common expressions that they can refer to, as a crutch. That way, they are still reading and communicating in the target language.
  
  For those in classes higher than levels 2 or 3, after they do these activities in Spanish, have them research social, economical, and political issues for each country, inspired by the first two reference pages for each chapter. This way, it could be associated with AP themes.
