Since I have received several inquiries concerning a summar, here goes: 1. Television programs such as "Unsolved Mysteries". The dramatization, interspersed with some speech, works well. 2. The Side by Side Videos. They don't have to be used with the text. Prentice-Hall. Their number for personal orders is 1-800-947-7700. Individual videotapes are $18.95. If you have real beginners, a good deal is the Video 1A & Workbook 1A package at $26.95. (Submitted by Alice Macondray) 3. Grapevine (from Heinemann). Short video chapters. Has a workbook. Funny. (Submitted by Julie Shattuck) 4. Crossroads Cafe. Some people use this for beginners. Others find it too high. Either way, the quality is quite good. 5. Hello America. Comes in 3 levels. (Submitted by Myra Baum) 6. Mr. Bean videos. Available in many video stores. Very little talking. Humorous.
