OUR PEDAGOGICAL APPROACH
At Klett World Languages, our mission is to empower students to communicate authentically in Spanish, French, German, and Italian. Our approach aligns with the California World Languages Standards (2019), emphasizing proficiency-based learning, cultural competence, and instructional flexibility.
Proficiency-Based Framework
Our programs are designed to support students’ progression through the California World Languages Standards, ensuring that learners develop their ability to interpret, interact, and present in the target language across meaningful contexts. We follow the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines, which are embedded in California’s framework, helping students move from novice to advanced levels of communication.
Project-Based Learning (PBL)
Our materials foster engaged learning through essential questions, thematic units, and collaborative projects that align with California’s World Language themes. Students develop critical thinking skills and intercultural competence, reinforcing California’s emphasis on communication and cultural understanding.
Cultural Integration
We incorporate authentic resources and realworld language experiences to help students identify, compare, and analyze cultural practices, products, and perspectives, a core component of California’s Intercultural Competency Standard. Our thematic units reflect the diverse cultures of Spanish-, French-, German-, and Italian-speaking communities worldwide.
To gain a deeper understanding of our commitment to effective teaching practices, we recommend reading Honing Our Craft: World Language Teaching Today, co-edited by Florencia Henshaw and Kim Potowski.
Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)
Aligned with California’s focus on real-world communication, our programs immerse students in meaningful, interactive tasks from day one. Students engage in interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational communication, mirroring the three modes of communication outlined in California’s World Languages Framework.
Comprehensible Input and Output
We provide rich, accessible language input, ensuring that students understand and produce meaningful communication. Our approach follows best practices in second language acquisition, promoting scaffolded activities that support natural language development.
Differentiating Instruction
Recognizing the diverse needs of California classrooms, our materials offer flexible learning pathways, including formative assessments, personalized scaffolding, and targeted support for heritage learners. Our units respect instructional freedom, allowing teachers to tailor content to their students’ interests and proficiency levels
By aligning with the California World Languages Standards, we provide educators with the tools to foster proficiency-driven learning while maintaining the flexibility to meet their students’ needs.

I teach children ages 7-9 using the CAP SUR… 1. The students really enjoy following the story of the Famille Cousteau and find the adventures of Gaston the Pigeon particularly engaging. The karaoke videos are a welcome component and encourage the students to sing along. I find the materials to be age-appropriate and appreciate how humor is the common thread in the content.
— Rona Mattocks, Alliance Française Dallas, Texas
I frequently use CAP SUR… 1 and 2 during private and group classes. In class, the students like to travel with the family Cousteau. They love listening to the song “The Tambacounda Market” and shopping with the Cousteau’s. The book allows them to imagine themselves anywhere: visiting a savanna or walking by the sea.
