$10 - $20 12th Grade Spanish Resources

Make learning Spanish fun with these simple, comprehensible input Spanish lesson plans and stories. Each lesson plan includes a story with targeted structures that can be repeated to give your students lots of repetitions. Comprehension activities to use after the story will allow you to engage your students and make sure that your Spanish lesson is truly comprehensible input.

Each story and lesson has a set of target structures that are used again and again in the story.  The target structures for the lessons are:

Andrés tiene hambre: tiene hambre, solo hay, busca, un bolillo

El Hombre Invisible: enamorado/enamorada de, no lo ve, compra, mâs pequeño que

El Mal Chef: un mal chef, pone, demasiada sal, eres

El Regalo Perfecto: un regalo perfecto, quiero darle, en su bolsillo

Each very simple story is told in two different ways. There is a printable text version, and an animated mp4 version. Tell the story as you watch it (pause if you want to stop and discuss or storyask!), or just watch it for comprehension. Each video is around 5 minutes long, with pause time for students to read the text. There is a second version of the video with only the illustrations - no text - so you can watch it and do story retells. With novice low and novice mid learners, you can tell the story as is. For novice high learners, you can add more details or write a parallel story. You could even use this story at higher levels by having students retell the story in the past.

Here’s what you’ll get in these Italian Comprehensible Input Lessons:

• Links to the videos both with and without the text

• A printable pdf version of the stories

• Comprehension question worksheets

• "Who said it?" worksheets

• Story retell worksheets

• Answer keys

Do your students struggle with the preterite vs imperfect tenses? Then this amazing fairy tale bundle is just what you've been looking for! This awesome resource with three fairy tales is an easy-to-use and low-prep way to practice the preterite and the imperfect, along with reading comprehension skills.

This bundle includes three of my classic fairy tale sets in the past tense: Cenicienta (Cinderella), Blancanieves (Snow White), and Rapunzel, It’s a perfect way to practice and assess your students’ knowledge of the preterite and imperfect tenses in Spanish.

This file includes two versions of each story:

• Version A has the verbs already conjugated, and the students must choose between the preterite and imperfect tenses of the verb.
• Version A also includes true/false comprehension questions and students must correct the false statements.
• Version B includes only the infinitive, so they must first decide which tense to use and then fill in the blank with the correct form of the verb.
• Version B also includes comprehension questions to be answered in complete sentences in Spanish.

Each story is 2-3 pages long. An answer key for both versions of each story is included in the download. The two different versions make differentiation simple!

Each story includes:

• a mini pictorial vocab list in color and black & white
• a mini-PowerPoint (great for pre-teaching key vocabulary)

✮ Spanish months and days bundle - Los días y los meses ✮

Spanish writing prompts, especially when you make them into a group challenge, are a great way to get your Spanish 2, 3 or students writing, improving and learning from others!  

Your Spanish students will look forward to working together to create writing that meets and exceeds the standards you’re looking for!  Writing together allows peers to learn from each other and takes away some of the pressure when writing alone. The themes are relevant and interesting to students and promote creativity with language. 

All of these resources help give the teacher the resource of time!  The group challenges provide you the chance to offer specific feedback, but on just one paper per group instead of one for every student!  And peer editing is another way for students to receive feedback without the need for the teacher to correct everything.
