My middle schoolers loved the story and the coloring pages! What a great way to bring more natural language use to our classroom with very little prep/stress on my part! And the characters are so cute!

What a great Halloween/Thanksgiving story and activity pack! My middle school Spanish 1 students loved the story and the activities. I was able to use the story in class and then send the rest home (my students are homeschoolers), and I always love resources I can use that way – though honestly if I had been able to do the activities in class we would have had much more Spanish language involvement. As usual from Srta Spanish, an excellent and helpful resource!

We read this story together in class. The student’s were able to understand most of it which boosted their confidence. The story was cute with a little twist at the end. My students found it humorous.

I printed this off and added it to my FVR library. It is a cute little book for the students to read. They grab it because it isn’t too thick!

I had originally planned to use this with only my level 2 students. They loved it. Once I posted them on the wall outside my classroom for the holiday my level 3 students really wanted to do this as well. They loved to color and read the silly story. It was a really nice activity to wind down the few days before our Thanksgiving break.

The story of Paco is so fun as well as the others I used this material during tutoring for my students ranging from 1s to 6th, for the little ones I read to them then we talked about the stories, great material!

Students loved disguising their turkeys! Great activity!

Thank you for this story about Paco! My students loved reading about him. I loved that they were seeing lots of repeated phrases and we were able to do so much related to clothing with Paco and his family.
