This handy reference guide contains organized charts of Key Words to indicate a time frame, Sequencing Words and Transition Words to help students add length and sophistication to their sentences.  Help students strive for the next ACTFL proficiency level by using these words to make their writing or speech a little more detailed and interesting.  A pre-made Quizlet activity is included as well.

Which students can use this reference:

• Spanish students in middle school and up
• Students at the Novice High level and up

How could this product be used?

The teacher would distribute the doc (either in printed form or digitally).  The teacher could review the words on the list, giving ideas for how students could incorporate them into speaking and writing.  Students could familiarize themselves with the words by playing the learning games on Quizlet individually. The teacher could start a game of Quizlet Live! to add interest and fun!  Teachers could focus on just a few words for a particular speaking or writing assignment or one category.  As students progress in their proficiency level, they can pick and choose words from more than one category.  This is a resource students can reference over and over again!

What this product includes:

• a 3 page google doc with Key Words, Sequencing Words and Transition Words
• a pre-made Quizlet for individual or classroom use

This product can be printed for students or can be given as a digital hand out on whatever digital learning platform you're using.

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!

Who can use this product?

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. 

Growing Bundles are a great deal!  First, you get a discount over buying each resource separately.  But BEST OF ALL, each time I add a new resource, you can download it for free!  (The price for the resource will change as I add each new resource, but anyone who has already bought the resource pays the lower price, but gets to download new additions for free!)

 This bundle includes:

-A Vacation-themed (preterite and imperfect) group challenge writing prompt

-A New Year’s themed group challenge writing prompt (all tenses can be used)

-A future themed group writing challenge

-A fall themed group writing challenge (present or past)
