The SAM consists of the Arbeitsbuch and H�rverstandnis, and Video-Treff components. Each chapter of the workbook section begins with a useful summary of the grammar points presented in the corresponding chapter of the student text. The workbook section features a variety of exercises including sentence-building/sentence-completion exercises, fill-ins, matching exercises and realia-based and picture-cued activities. The H�rverstandnis component contains spin-offs of the Vorschau, Zwischenspiel, and Zusammenschau dialogues, with accompanying activities on an audio CD sold separately. This lab program also offers vocabulary and pronunciation practice, pattern-type exercises, and personalized questions.
