A great way to teach history to my Spanish 3 students

Good resource, but it doesn’t come with a version with a wordbank so I wasn’t able to use it with my Spanish 1.
Ashley Mikkelsen –
You could always use both the Spanish and English versions together!

Señora Moreyra –
Thank you SO much for this great resource! I had to teach “Ancient Civilizations” to 7th graders and didn’t know where to start as students didn’t learn about this in Social Studies by then. Thank you for keeping it simple and having the stories in Spanish and English to support my students with learning disabilities. I had students work in groups to complete their pyramid on a big paper instead and it came out great!

This resource was such a help to me. I had level 1 ELL students in my class last year for the first time and was having a hard time finding resources to use with them that aligned with our curriculum. I really appreciated having things already created in Spanish.
