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!   

**Please be sure to buy additional licenses if more than one teacher plans to use this resource.**

The Argumentative Essay on the AP Spanish Language and Culture® exam is arguably one of the most challenging parts! Students need a guided way to reflect on their argumentative essay writing and improve it. I needed a way to differentiate instruction and streamline feedback. I created a step-by-step organizer that is digital and printable, so it can be used with Distance Learning or when you have students in person.

This graphic organizer independent work is perfect to assign after students have written one essay for a grade or for feedback and are getting ready to write another one. It takes students through a series of steps asking them to reflect on their past work and the feedback it received. It asks them to review the rules and requirements of the argumentative essay, and it asks them to write certain parts of 2 practice essays. These smaller parts are sections of the essay that, when done well, set the student up for success with the rest of the essay. These small parts will be turned in for feedback from the teacher.

All parts of this product can be changed or customized to meet your students' individual needs!

Who can use this product?

• Students preparing for the AP Spanish Language and Culture® Exam
• Students in a higher level Spanish class needing to improve their writing

How Can I Use this Product?

• Assign this independent work digitally, or print everything
• Ask students to follow each step in order to work towards a better understanding of the requirements of the Argumentative Essay, and to produce a high quality piece of writing
• Students work independently, giving the teacher time to meet individually with students or to give differentiated instruction to different groups of students
• Teachers can give fast and personal feedback on student work as the students will only be writing certain parts of the argumentative essay

What's Included in this Product?

• 2 pages of teacher notes that explain exactly how and why I use this product, and ideas for customizing it to student needs
• a 2-page graphic organizing chart which walks students through steps to review and practice writing parts of the argumentative essay
• A link to a Google Doc with a graphic organizer for taking notes on the 3 sources associated with the Argumentative Essay

Help your Spanish students work through understanding the difference between Saber and Conocer with these pre-made, no-prep digital or printable activities! Start with some direct instruction with the grammar notes, including how they change meaning in the preterite tense. There are 2 basic practice activities where students analyze a sentence for meaning to choose the correct verb and practice conjugating. The last activity is an interactive Google Slides presentation where students have 2 different drag and drop practices; one asks them to form complete sentences by dragging and dropping tiles together, and the other asks students to match the correct conjugated verb (tense and form) to the English sentence to illustrate the differences in meaning between preterite and imperfect.

There are a few tricks to using these verbs correctly, like "the personal a" with the verb conocer, or the word "que" to mean that when expressing a fact. These notes and practices help students utilize the verbs and the extra grammar points correctly.

Not ready to practice with the preterite and imperfect yet? Just edit these Google docs to your liking!

Who can use this product?

• Students in Year 2 and above if you want to include preterite and imperfect
• Students in Year 1 if you only need present tense

How can I use this product?

• Start with guided instruction using the grammar notes
• Assign the practice sheets for whole class, partner work or individual work
• These practices sheets can be assigned via Google Classroom or can be printed
• Practice sheets can be used as formative assessment as well
• When students are ready for independent work, assign the Drag and Drop activity. This assignment can only be assigned digitally as it is an interactive Google Slide Show. This replaces physical manipulatives and allows students to be creative with language!

What's included in this product?

• 1 page Google Doc with links to 4 activities
• 3-page Google Doc with grammar notes (including the personal a, using que to mean that, and the preterite and the imperfect
• 1 page practice: fill in the blank
• 1 page practice: multi tense
• 5 page Google Slide drag and drop activity (multi tense)
