Foreign Language with computer AND textbook??

Does anyone know of a foreign language curriculum that uses both a textbook for instruction AND computer activities for practice?  It seems that the ones I have found only use one or the other.  If it matters, I am interested in HS French.

Thanks!

Rosetta Stone home school has printouts which I assume are worksheets -- I have not printed them out yet.  I need to do that.

Thank you!  But we tried RS and all the instruction takes place on the computer.  The worksheets are for practice. I was hoping to find the opposite---bulk of instruction from textbook and computer activities for practice.

Berlitz does a good introduction to conversational French (and other languages) in a workbook with written explanations and activities as well as internet-based activities. It also comes with a CD so that you can hear the actual accent and pronunciation, which I really like. I used this book as a textbook when I was teaching a high school-level class for a homeschooling co-op. It's available at Borders and Barnes & Noble, as well as Amazon, for about $16.

 

....I just looked up the title in my files and it's 5-Minute French, including audio cd, by Berlitz -- $16.99

 

ISBN: 978-981-268-457-8
