Kaleidoskop - Simone (formerly of Tufts University) Berger - Bog

KALEIDOSKOP features a flexible four-skills, student-centered approach that promotes communication and focuses on the literature and culture of the German-speaking world. KALEIDOSKOP is essentially two books in one--a cultural and literary reader (Lektuere with 10 Themen), and a comprehensive review of grammar (Kapitel). This combination allows maximum flexibility for instructors to design their own programs. Reading plays an important role in this text, with exercises for listening, speaking, and writing revolving around the wide range of authentic reading selections. The self-contained grammar section (Grammatik) allows instructors to work with the grammar topics in whatever order they choose; the grammar chapters may be treated independently of the reading chapters or used concurrently with the Themen of the same number.
