Parts 1-3 are single-tier in format (with differentiation being supplied in the Higher and Lower Workbooks, differentiated Copymasters, extension and support section and differentiated reading section at the back of the Students' Book). This fully-integrated course includes the following components: Students' Book, Workbook (Higher), Workbook (Lower), Copymasters, Teacher's Book, Audio CDs, ICT package (Students' and Teacher's), En claro (low level) support pack, Coursemaster. The Amigos Students' Book is fully Frameworked: it contains starters and plenaries on every spread and grammar and language strategies are explained in clear, concise language. Students are encouraged to discuss and reflect upon what they've learnt. Differentiated assessment is provided through the checklists with graded activities that are at the end of each unit in the Students' Book and the Copymasters. These can be used for self-assessment. There is also plenty of opportunity for independent study in the support and extension sections, reading section and grammar activities at the end of the spread, which are ideal for coverwork and homework. The fifth double-page spread of each unit provides extended reading material featuring an aspect of Spanish or Latin American life connect with the unit topics, and this is also very useful for independent study.
