Two opening chapters present fundamentals of Spanish speech and word order, and familiarize readers with often-used words and phrases that relate directly to school situations. The two following chapters pertain to Spanish that is most useful for communicating with younger students (pre-school through elementary grades) and older students (middle and high school grades). Remaining chapters offer help for counseling in Spanish in issues relating to health care, career guidance, college assistance, educational administration, special-needs, and extracurricular activities. A Spanish-English and English-Spanish glossary is also provided to help educators find the right word or phrase for a variety of situations.
