Cajas de cartón: Comprehension and Analysis Questions and Additional Resources
This packet is designed for heritage Spanish speakers or advanced Spanish students. I used this novel with my first-year Spanish language arts students. They were mixed grades 9 and 10 but none had ever had a Spanish class before. My classes had significant variation in reading and writing proficiency, though all students were fluent listeners and speakers of Spanish. For some, this novel was a breeze while for others, it was quite challenging.I introduced this novel toward the end of the fi

Spanish Reader's Theater--Caperucita Roja (Little Red Riding Hood)
Reader's Theater is a great tool for building fluency in reading. As a bilingual educator I have found that Spanish reader's theater is a valuable tool to get Spanish language learners to practice their oral development. Although I have used these scripts in my First grade classroom, they would also work well for secondary Spanish classes.
Little Red Riding Hood is easy to follow with its repetitive phrases and familiar storyline. This reader's theater is an excellent way for students who are

Washington Irving: "The Devil and Tom Walker" Assessment with Answer Key
From Electric English...
This is a three-part assessment. The first is simply true and false questions; the second is multiple choice; while, as a rule, I try to avoid this type of simplified question and answer, it is still good to give the students practice.... After all, they will see these types of questions on standardized tests. The third section asks students to make inferences from their reading, from Irving's life experiences, and from their class discussions, then to apply that knowled
