Spanish For You! {Mosaic Review}

As part of the Homeschool Mosaics team I was asked to review Spanish For You!, Fiesta package.  I have to say that the timing couldn't have been better!  I have been searching for an easy, but good foreign language curriculum for next school year.   I took Spanish the last 2 years of high school.  I wasn't very good at it and with it being lets just say a few years since then my Spanish is anything but fluent.  I am definitely adding this to our curriculum lineup for next year!  In reviewing this curriculum I had the privilege to a conference call with the author of the program Debbie Annett.
