I am enjoying looking through the curriculum. There are a wide variety of activities to keep the kids engaged. I love all the creative ideas. I will be using this along with the curriculum my school is having me use to help the kids become more engaged and understand the material better. Thanks

I’m a veteran teacher (25+ years), but I am new at teaching a world language. WIth just one year of experience teaching Spanish, I have to tackle a new class this year. I’ve been scrambling to create material for months and then found this fantastic resource. The material is very well made with clear instructions. Yes, there is A LOT to download and go through but I can’t describe how thankful I am for this resource.
Roxey G. –
I couldn’t wait to purchase this resource and begin using it this year! I will immediately purchase a second semester resource if and when it is released! I’m wrapping up my first full week today and my Spanish 1 kids are so invested because they feel like they can truly understand so much more Spanish than they thought they could after spending this week working through the Cognate unit! I have tried a lot of different resources over the years and the way these units are put together work so well for my ADHD brain that I feel like I’m truly enjoying teaching for the first time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
ROKMARYS M. –
Gracias por este material que se ve estupendo , pero necesito entenderlo un poco para ver que tal me va. muchas gracias de antemano.
The Cultural Classroom by Sra Perryman –
Pick and choose what you want to do–it’s up to you! I love that. Thanks
Esmeralda S. –
I used this resource to start first year learners and it was successful! My students felt confident about their abilities with these activities.
Angela Thomas –
This can be used for review for Spanish 2 students at the beginning of the year as well.
Kristen P. –
It’s a fun and engaging resource to keep students interested
Claudia R. –
Great resource for a new teacher! I didn’t end up using everything, but it gave me a solid start and was a great value.
Brittney R. –
Easy no prep, fun and an engaging activities! Thank you!
The Senorita Storefront –
This unit was fantastic!! Such a great introductory to the school year for my novice learners! The lessons and activities were so fun, engaging and easy to implement! I cannot recommend this bundle enough! I will use it for years to come!
Christina Zeoli –
Great for first weeks of school. Lots of activities and helpful for a teacher who has multiple levels.
Gabrielle Alvarez –
This resource provides various activities in both digital and printable formatting. The activities themselves are well organized and very fun to use in class. The only thing I should mention is that this Exploratory Unit bundle focuses on cognates and not on grammar (in that you are essentially practicing vocabulary and reading/listening comprehension, rather than learner beginner level grammatical concepts such as tense, verb conjugations, ser/estar, etc.). Although the unit is primarily in present tense and pretty simple in terms of the grammar, it did require me to do pre-teaching in regards to the grammar.
Sarah B. –
These lessons are great for the start of the year and really build up students confidence with the language! The activities keep the students engaged and I especially love the listening exercises that are included.
Chris V. –
Great resource, I would recommend to other educators!
Kathryn G. –
Love. Love. Love. Great cognate and starting Spanish activities and resources.
Chris L. –
My students enjoy these activities and the format they are in. It makes it easy to follow, so it keeps my students engaged through its entirety.
Monica G. –
Great resource to use at the beginning of the year. Spanish Cognate help my student feel confident.
Stacy Harrison Inc –
A great resource for the beginning of the school year.
Ashley Mikkelsen –
Hi Stacy! I think to make life easier for you in the future with ANY bundle of resources on TPT, I would recommend downloading each thing individually. So in this case, I would go to your “My Purchases” page and go to this resource, then download the units one at at time. TPT puts them all into one massive file automatically and I can see how that would be overwhelming! I will have to see if I can figure out a way to put them all in one print and go file as the “bonus” that TPT allows me to upload in order to streamline that for everyone in the future because that would at least reduce the duplicates – although it might still be overwhelming to see all of the weeks of lessons all at once. Thank you for your feedback!
Kristi B. –
Great resource! This is a nice way to start the year.
Tara B. –
Such a time saver! Thank you for making and bundling this
Teach Outside the Book –
Love it! I used it in my exploratory classes and my regular Spanish classes to start the year. Super engaging and fun! ¡Gracias!
SueAnn L. –
This was a perfect starting unit for my 7th graders. I will definitely use it from here on for beginners.
Hannah D. –
My students love the stories! They are so easy to use, no prep, and great for the beginning of a lesson or sub plans!
Hannah Gershenoff –
My students and I love this resource. This was so helpful for the first few weeks of school and the kids gained so much confidence from these two units. Now they are ready to take on the rest of Spanish.
Kait H. –
It’s taken me awhile to review, but I am so glad I purchased this bundle! It had everything I needed and my students enjoyed the activities.
Lauren B. –
Used this bundle a lot when I taught 9th grade – such a blessing!
Spanish Juicy Lessons by Laura Torres –
GREAT PRODUCT!!! MY STUDENTS LOVED IT!!
Erin M. –
We are having so much fun with these units! Thank you!!!
Audrey R. –
Students were so excited with this resource since they were exposed to those words in a really creative and fun way!
Gracias Ashley!
Kelly S. –
Thank you for this excellent resource! I was at a loss as to how to start this year with “brick” and “click” students. I relied heavily on the cognates unit to help my students (and myself!) get off on the right foot this year. I always enjoy the “corre en circulos” activities, and I was able to modify and use the activity with my brick students this year. Thanks again for helping this veteran teacher get off to a great start during this crazy year!
Tapanga Burgess –
God bless this bundle. I was so unsure of how to start the semester with my 6th grade students, and this is perfect. They are learning so many words and gaining so much confidence with the cognates. I look forward to doing the HFV with them later on!
Carey S. –
I appreciate the variety of distance learning ideas and adaptations to in person learning. The lesson plans did not contain distance materials all in one place so it took me a long time to organize everything.
Melissa B. –
Great variety of ready-to-go activities.
SavannaArevalo –
This resource was a lifesaver this year! I started my Spanish I and Spanish II students with this and they all did great! The content covers the verbs really well and the activities are engaging.
Amy Nikolaou –
This is an awesome resource!!
Jessica A. –
I am so impressed with this bundle! I have been using the cognates unit with my beginning 7th grade students while on a hybrid schedule (I’m doing everything digital even for the in class students). It is easy to use and has alleviated the stress of having to change all my non-digital assignments to a digital format: it is done for me! GRACIAS!
Emilie C. –
Thank you so much!
Maribelys S. –
This is a great resource to have! This bundle saved me a ton of planning time and helped me with getting started with implementing CI in my lessons. My students loved the stories! They are very easy for them to understand as they have lots of cognates that make them feel accomplished and not frustrated with Spanish. Students are able to learn sentence structures without having to focus on grammar (A natural approach!).
Miranda S. –
Straightforward, clear, and an excellent resource! Has made planning a breeze!
bmspanish –
This is a comprehensive set of materials to build students confidence with language learning! Gracias!
Shin’s Specials –
I’m so glad I jumped in to purchase the whole bundle! There is such a variety of great activities here. I’m using this as the first several weeks of my new exploratory classes, to prepare students to read their first novel. Thanks so much!
Kathryn R. –
Excellent resource!
Cherin G. –
This is absolutely an amazing resource. I’ve been wanting to transition into more CI in the classroom and this resource has totally helped me to do that. I only wish I knew where to go from here… 🙂 Great resource and well worth the money with so many activities and in depth explanations! Thank you!!
Ashley Mikkelsen –
I am so so happy to hear that! Thanks so much for your feedback!
TeachLoveSpanish –
Great way to practice high frequency verbs!
Tara G. –
I have purchased many excellent items from this seller in the past but the Novice Cognate unit and the High Frequency Verb units are amazing and total sanity savers after I found out that I was getting a new prep 4 days before school starts! Forever grateful!
