Short Description:
This introductory level textbook was developed with the student in mind. Florecer means to "bloom" or to "thrive" in Spanish. This textbook should give the student and their instructor the tools to learn at home and acquire the language both in class and through meaningful conversations in Spanish with both native and non-native speakers of Spanish. This is a communicatively based Spanish Language textbook focused on offering students the resources to become more aware of the diversity of the Spanish speaking world. Each chapter will include opportunities to read, write, react and converse with classmates, the instructor and to make connections with the Spanish speaking world through meaningful interactions.
Long Description:
This textbook was developed to give students and their instructors free and open access to a textbook aimed at the Introductory level of Spanish. The vocabulary, grammar and readings were developed with the final goal of guiding students towards meaningful communication through reading, writing, listening and speaking activities.
Each of the 12 chapters are dedicated to a different Spanish speaking country or region and focused on introducing students to the immense cultural and linguistic diversity of the Spanish speaking world. By the end of the last chapter, students should be able to bloom to the functional level in the Spanish language set up to thrive at the intermediate level.

In writing German 101, I have combined over ten years’ worth of my own classroom activities and lecture notes to save students from high textbook costs. Traditional textbooks often have too few examples or little explanation and require the additional purchase of an expensive, online learning program. As time went on, I found myself using the textbook so little that it seemed silly to require students to purchase it.
New words are introduced gradually in colored text boxes next to each concept. Sections can be combined to make the desired chapter length. For example, if you wish to cover the alphabet on day one, simply do that section first. I’ve placed it in the middle of chapter one because I prefer to gradually introduce it along with pronunciation as I go so that students begin to speak quickly and don’t grow disinterested. Every effort has been made to compare similarities and differences between English and German. Students whose native language is English can use that as a helpful resource to make learning German easier. English speakers, especially, tend to have trouble with the concept of cases. Therefore, I’ve taken the approach of focusing on the nominative case and present tense verb conjugations in chapter 1 with the accusative case in chapter 2. Chapter 3 reviews both cases and reinforces the old verbs with the imperative. The dative case will not be presented until German 102, to help prevent the mixing of these cases.
