These readings are helpful for beginning students as they have keys for unknown words and are easy to follow along with.
Delores T. –
This is a fantastic and engaging resource for improving reading comprehension skills. I used it as a gallery walk activity to get students up and moving around the classroom, and they absolutely loved it! The activity was interactive, fun, and highly engaging. My students had an amazing time and were fully involved from start to finish. A great way to make learning both meaningful and enjoyable!

The short readings are written in comprehensible language, making them accessible while still challenging students. I love that each reading includes vocabulary support, which helps build confidence and independence.

This was a fun travel CI unit. Students were able to learn their vocabulary through CI rather than by simply memorizing it. Colorful and engaging slides.

This is a great resource for reading comprehension incorporating travel vocabulary. I liked that I could post the short stories around the room for my students to walk around and read. This provided a little added engagement to find the person that fit the descriptions on the worksheet. Thank you!

I like that these activities make the students read a variety of mini stories to locate all of the information. What is also nice about this one is the personalized follow up about mis vacaciones. I’ve purchased many of these Look for Someone Who activities from Srta Spanish and I will do so again. Gracias.
