Must-Have Resources for Spanish Class
Have you ever started a new teaching position only to find that there are no resources? Either the teacher before you did not leave anything behind or you are building the Spanish program from scratch. I have been there. At least 5 times in my eighteen years of teaching Spanish! Whether you are a new Spanish teacher or you are looking to find new resources to engage students, here are some bundles of must-have resources to save time, money, and make learning fun! (Plus lots of free Spanish resources!)
1. WORD WALL BUNDLES
Word walls are an effective way to display vocabulary. Fill empty classroom walls and bulletin boards with cognates, high frequency words, subject pronouns, and interrogatives to visually support students on reading and writing activities all year long. Students of all ages will refer to these vocabulary words again and again. They will depend less on you and learn to use resources found in the classroom instead.
This Spanish Word Wall Bundle includes four word walls with over 200 words!
"This bundle includes so many high-frequency words. I have noticed my students looking at my word wall and using it how it should be used."
Word Wall Bundle 2 includes greetings, high frequency verbs and Sweet 16 verbs.
