Spanish I Resource Book

Welcome to the Level 1 Spanish Teacher Guide, 4th edition. Inside you will find ready to use ideas to help you get started on being the best Spanish teacher. Whether this is your very first teaching position or you have taught before, this Guide is sure to offer you great resources. The resources included are not meant to be the end-all be all, but hopefully some will spark other ideas for you to develop further or simply just edit for your own students. Although these ideas are all geared for level 1/beginning classes, they certainly can be adapted for all levels.

Some items are ready to print and handout to students, or ready to copy onto an overhead. Other items offer ideas and tips for you to build off of. You can edit any activity to personalize it for your own class.
