PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE SHEET-
By ARIANA PEREZ
PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE SHEET-
SPANISH/ENGLISH
2 sheets.
Includes strengths, areas of improvement and a comment section.
I like using this during conferences because it makes it so much easier to open up the topic of where the student needs to improve and the next steps to follow.
By ARIANA PEREZ
Use these flash cards in order to facilitate vocabulary words for AP Spanish Literature. only 7 are blank in order to hold students accountable, but with the most difficult words being defined. 50 cards can be made. Have students change the definition for Metafora. I have divided the vocabulary words, by three. There are many words for students to learn in AP Spanish Literature, and this is one of my aids!

Spanish Class Back To School Parent Engagement Docs
By Specialty Spanish
It's Back To School Time! How can you get parents, guardians and families involved in your Spanish class? Use these templates to communicate with parents at the beginning of the year! These digital or printable Google Docs are just waiting for your personal touch and details! Start the new year with high parent engagement!
The first doc is a letter for families which introduces their child’s new Spanish teacher (you!) and asks parents to tell you about their child. **Parents love to tell you about their kids and being asked let’s them know right away that you care!
The second doc is a similar letter, but tailored for the parents/guardians of AP Spanish students.
The 3rd doc is a request for guest speakers. Why not let our families know how much their life experience is valued? Send this letter to find out if there are any family members, friends or colleagues that use Spanish in their lives! **This document is part of my Spanish Back to School Survival Pack for Middle and High School bundle!!**
The 4th doc is a hand-out to give parents, perhaps at Open House Night? It lists several ways in which parents can help their child succeed in Spanish class, even if they don’t know Spanish. It’s a great way to empower parents and to give them actionable strategies to be involved with their child’s learning on a regular basis.
The last doc is a study guide template. I send this via email about a week before an important assessment. It’s a great way to keep families in the loop as we encourage them to be involved in their child’s Spanish education!
All of these documents are almost ready to send out! You can edit and personalize all of them, and they can be printed out or emailed home. Start your school year with strong partnerships and high parent involvement!

French School Lunch Menu Activities Bundle - 5 French and English Versions
By Love Learning Languages - French Resources
French School Lunch Menu Activities Bundle - 5 French and English Versions
Here are five no prep printable activities to use along with my free French school lunch menu series. You get five versatile worksheets that you can use with any of the lunch menus I've provided. Since there are so many menus available, having five different worksheets to use will keep your menu activities from becoming boring. All of the menus are in French only, but each worksheet has a French only and an English only version so that you can use them with any level whether you teach core French or in French immersion.
I recommend printing the menu you want to use on one side of a sheet of paper and the set of questions you want to use on the other. Talk about a time saver and fun cultural addition to your food unit!
Versions 1 - 4 have ten questions each while version 5 has six questions. The questions on these worksheets will have your students learning a lot about cultural differences concerning menu items as well as the amount of time French students get for lunch, why there's no menu for Wednesday, etc.
Your students will find it interesting to see that French kids are offered une entrée, un plat principal, une garniture, un produit laitier, et un dessert every day.
It would be fun to look up images of some of these menu items to show students what they look like and if they eat anything similar at their schools or homes.
These activities and menus are all included in my French Food & Drink bundle.
