Clarsimo! - Roselyne Bernabeu

Provides preparation for the GCSE based on the syllabuses to be examined from 1998. The revision is designed to prepare candidates to achieve at least a grade C, with most tasks set at a level representative of the achievement required for higher grades.;Most of the tasks in this work have Spanish rubrics and require a response in Spanish. A few of the more complex comprehension and interpretation tasks, and scenario settings for writing tasks and role-play contexts, are in English, as in the examination. A glossary of standard Spanish rubrics is included to allow the best possible preparation.;There is one unit for each of the five "Areas of Experience" in the National Curriculum and the GCSE syllabus. With each unit, all four skills - listening, speaking, reading and writing - are covered through tasks which draw on sources and stimuli typical of the GCSE exam. Wherever practical, tasks are allocated marks, with a target mark indicated in each case. The tasks range in difficulty but, taken as a whole, reflect the requirements of the higher grades of GCSE.;The accompanying teacher's notes includes a cassette.
