Spanish Speaking Countries Back to School FREEBIE!

It's that time of year, friends. Even if you don't want to, especially this year, you're probably thinking about what your lessons are going to look like as you head back to school.  Great news! No matter what scenario is thrown at you, I've got a freebie for the first weeks of school that will have your students engaged whether they're physically in your classroom or doing remote learning from home.

In the first couple of weeks in Spanish 1, I always like to make sure that I cover the following intro unit concepts:

1. Cognates/ cognados: I find that exposing students to cognates early on helps students build much-needed confidence. It's an important language learning strategy as students begin working with authentic texts in the target language. 
2. Spanish-speaking countries/ países hispanohablantes: It's important for students to know where Spanish is spoken. It's not that I need them to memorize capitals and countries and where they are located, but they should get the gist of regions where Spanish is spoken and its prevalence.
3. How to work with authentic resources: It's valuable for students to experience quality, appropriate authentic texts from the get-go. I want my kiddos to know that they don't have to understand every word. Instead, I want them to focus on the main idea, cognates, and most importantly, to understand that language learning doesn't need to be perfect at all. It's a process. Plus, authentic resources provide students with important cultural awareness. 

Guess what? I've put all of these important Spanish 1 beginning concepts into one awesome freebie.  Just sign up below and receive this ready-to-go resource in your inbox.
