Course Planning 2 SEMESTER SYSTEM The following chart illustrates how the AVENTURAS program can be completed in a two-semester course. This division of material allows the present indicative tense, the present progressive tense, and the preterite to be presented in the first semester. The second semester focuses on the imperfect, the subjunctive, and the perfect tenses. Lecciones 1-8 Lecciones 9-16 3 SEMESTER SYSTEM or 3 QUARTER SYSTEM This chart shows how AVENTURAS can be used in a three-semester or three quarter system. This arrangement allots only five lessons to the second and third semesters, which gives students more time to absorb and practice new verb tenses.
