Spanish Curriculums

[organicmom3]

I'm trying to find a good curriculum for my hs daughter....she wants to do two years.  We did Rosetta Stone for Latin for one year but were not satisfied....we just feel she needs a program that will do a lot of writing as well. I totally understand the philosphy of Rosetta Stone but with just two years to go before college, I think she needs a program that is better suited to prepare her for the type of class she would take in college.....which would require a lot of written quizes and exams alongside verbal, etc.  So......what curriculums have people used and what have you lliked or disliked about them?

Thanks in advance!

You might check out OSU spanish online.  My daughter is currently finishing her 3rd year of high school Spanish with them.  There is a standard high school textbook to purchase, plenty of online exercises both written and oral, many video and audio recordings to supplement the reading.  There is also a weekly time to call in and chat with the instructor.  My daughter did Spanish 1 in brick and mortar school, but has completed Spanish 2 and most of Spanish 3 with the OSU program.  I don't think it would match a great in person class, but it is a good mix of material for an online course.
