AP Spanish Lesson Plans for the Whole Year without a Textbook + Test Prep
By Specialty Spanish
Back To School is here! The AP Spanish Language and Culture® Complete Lesson Plans for the Whole Year includes EVERYTHING you need to teach this course without being tied to a particular textbook! Lesson plans are written by unit, and include specific, step-by-step instructions, # of minutes per activity, and every activity is linked into the lesson plans. That means:
-no searching a folder for a particular activity!
-no searching the internet for authentic materials!
-no scrambling to make scaffolds and supports to make your materials accessible!
-no guesswork as to how or what to teach next!
Perfect for:
*Teachers teaching this course for the first time
*Teachers who need a refresh after teaching the course for a while
*Teachers feeling overloaded with all the responsibilities of the job
You can expect the following in each unit of study:
-a table that lists the types of activities and how many of each there are (view these in the previews)
-a table of learning objectives for each class for the entire unit (view these in the previews)
*Click HERE to download the learning objectives and activity count*
-Google Docs lesson plans with daily learning objectives, step-by-step instructions, teacher tips and explanations, and activities linked in
-embedded direct instruction and practice for the different parts of the AP Spanish® Exam
-Lessons organized by 3 45 minute periods and 1 90 minute period (our school uses a modified block schedule). The lesson activities are easy to move around to meet your school's schedule!
When we unexpectedly went to distance learning, I had to scramble as an AP Spanish® teacher. My students did not have access to their textbooks or the audio that went with it. We used the Temas text, but I found that I had to adapt. So, my lesson plans are now based almost entirely on authentic materials that I have found and curated. I have created vocab lists around these materials and the activities that will go with them! There are times during the lesson plans where I offer a suggestion from something that is found in the Temas textbook, but these lessons can be used fully without those suggestions.
Along with the honor of teaching our most advanced Spanish students comes the burden of heavy correcting and tons of planning. We also have other preps. Having an entire year’s worth of curriculum, lesson plans, projects and assessments ready to go will save you an incredible amount of time and relieve some of the pressure that we face as teachers.
In my classes, we also review grammar and use the Avance text as a guide. I include a study guide and a grammar quiz in each unit, but the practice activities (if you want to review grammar in class) are not included.
Required Materials:
-Access to the Internet and Google Docs/Slides/Forms
-Access to AP Classroom® via College Board (free to all AP ®Teachers)
Referenced ancillary materials (though not necessary)
-Temas textbook
-Avance Grammar textbook
-A test prep workbook (several are suggested in the plans, though not needed)
Here is some feedback about my unit plans!
Extremely satisfied
Thank you so much for creating these! They are so helpful to have in class. My students were very engaged.
Extremely satisfied
Amazing resource! I have already purchased Unit 2 and 3!
Extremely satisfied
Extremely well planned unit. Everything you need is included here. I teach 3 different levels of Spanish and it is hard for me to revamp lesson plans. We use the textbook TEMAS at my school site but the readings can be very dry. I like how this unit incorporates soooo many resources that are authentic.
I am definitely going to purchase more units. I wish there was a discounted bundle with all units because I would buy it!
Why should you trust me??
I have been teaching AP Spanish Language and Culture® since 2014 and have 24 years of teaching experience. As I am still a classroom teacher, my activities and ideas evolve each year. My students have done overwhelmingly well on the AP® exam over the years and almost all have earned the scores needed to get college credit, with many receiving 4’s and 5’s. I am successfully teaching this course in conjunction with the University of CT as another way for students to earn college credit. My former students report taking Spanish classes at the college/university level and having a high level of success!
Consider asking your district to buy this product for you!

This activity is geared for students in Years 2, 3 and 4. Read more HERE.
Vacaciones en España focuses on a trip to the beach town of Benidorm, on the West Coast of Spain. This Google Slides presentation contains vibrant photos of real people, which makes it engaging for students. Each slide comes with text to explain what they’re seeing. Within the presentation are links to reading, writing, speaking and listening activities. This activity is great for a travel theme and when students are starting to learn the past tense!

Avila is a similar format to Vacaciones en España. The Google Slides™ presentation contains original photographs from Ávila, Spain, a beautiful and medieval city to the north of Madrid. Each slide contains text taking students through Ávila’s past (its incredible walls, towers and cathedral) and present-day life with some views of the city!

Spanish Writing Prompts Bundle with Peer Edits & Scaffolds Novice & Intermediate
By Specialty Spanish
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)
-A winter themed group writing challenge (present or past)
-A peer editing template
-A vocab list that breaks down words that add sophistication into transition words, key words for time frame and sequencing words
-some themes are differentiated by levels

Spanish Fall Otoño Activities for Writing and Speaking & Listening
By Specialty Spanish
Is there a Fall Feel in the air? These Spanish fall activities will get your students talking, writing and listening about otoño, Halloween and Día de los muertos in an engaging way. Practice both presentational and interpersonal speaking and writing while keeping students producing lots of Spanish! Give them comprehensible input with comprehension questions that are either open-ended or self-correcting MCQ!
Use these resources in all of your levels! They’re already differentiated! Those days when you’re just exhausted, progress reports were due, you were correcting benchmarks, when you need sub plans.... And now you don’t have a great lesson plan for tomorrow? No worries! These activities will get you through! And best of all- students will be working hard in the target language and having fun!
The writing prompts are awesome! They are differentiated for Novice High and Intermediate Low students. Each level has 2 prompts; one about Halloween and another about Día de los muertos. This resource comes with
-vocab lists to students with season-specific vocab
-graphic organizer
-ideas for how to make this a group task (for less correcting for you!)
-a rubric
-color or black and white printing options
The Open-Ended Task Cards are also amazing! They are so versatile and can be used in so many ways! There are 20 different prompts related to fall themes and they encourage creativity with their language. Vocab that may be unfamiliar is given right on the card! Here are some ideas about how you can use them.
-print them. Pass them out to your class. Ask each student to do a 10 minute free write.
-print them. Pass them out to your class. Ask each student to do a 2 minute presentational speaking with their next door neighbor.
-Display one card for the class. Everyone writes about that topic. (Great for a warm-up each day!)
-Display one card for the class. Everyone on the right talks. Everyone on the left listens and gives feedback. Then switch!
These task cards contain:
-20 different scenarios
-printable version in color
-printable version in black and white
-display version for a projector or SmartBoard
-Peer feedback form
-Self-Reflection form
The Listening Activity is authentic, curated to make sure it's appropriate for students, and comes with 2 options for comprehension questions! Students will listen to a short video about tips for starting a new school year. You can assign the open ended questions (answer key included) or you can assign the Edpuzzle version with Multiple Choice Questions that are self-grading.
The Día de los muertos vocab puzzle is a great way to practice vocab related to this holiday. Students use their mouse (or cursor) to manipulate digital puzzle pieces and match up vocabulary terms to put the puzzle together!
