Should I purchase the workbook for my child?
Purchasing a workbook is your prerogative. If you choose not to purchase it, your child will be assigned a workbook and they can use it as reference and write their answers on paper in their binders. The workbook purchased/provided for Spanish 9 is also used in Spanish 10 and the workbook purchased/provided for Spanish 11 is also used in Spanish 12. Please note that the assigned workbooks work the same way that textbooks do. They must be signed out but returned in pristine condition to avoid any charges for damage/loss.
