Klett World Languages, a Chicago-based publishing company that specializes in K-12 Spanish, German, Italian, and French language programs. At KWL we believe in language programs that are diverse, inclusive, student-centered, and foster meaningful communication.

Mapas follows a project-based, content focused approach. Each chapter offers an overarching topic and an essential question, which the student uses to negotiate and build meaning while also practicing critical thinking. The overarching concept of this series guarantees an approach to language learning that views culture as a central part of the process. Mapas has a rich representation of authentic resources and diversity of voices. Each level of this series is designed to be inviting and relevant for today’s teenagers.
