Spanish resources that are easy for learners to access, and that encourage learners to start speaking Spanish with confidence from the outset.

An owl and fish Spanish class

(0)
There are 2 little folding pages - one about owls and one about fish. The language and actions may be repeated with these two sheets. I have put the chants and the instructions in the lesson plan.

Some colouring sheets with opposites all related to animals. We try and invent actions for these words and incorporate them into a Spanish dance to the Hawaii five o tune.

Observe the puddle shrink

I make a book about the shrinking puddle and read it with the children. On a sunny day we make puddles with watering cans in the yard, then we chalk around them and return to them at intervals to rechalk. This book reflects this activity and gives you Spanish language to incorporate into the activity.

We learn the language by acting it out, then I give the children the pictures to put in order and plant the seeds. We drill the language and reward good speaking aloud.

I use this to incorporate a bit of physical learning and Spanish to learning about the life cycle of frogs.
Under the sheet

Under the sheet

(0)
I choose 3 children to hide under a sheet, then get everybody to sing Debajo de la sábana. At the end I choose children to name the people hidden under the sheet. I use a tune from Diez deditos 'Debajo del botón'. The document I have loaded turns into a little guessing display presentation when I have put a flap over the main picture, so the children can guess which character is 'Debajo de la sábana'. Sometimes I write the first letter of the character's name on the flap.

The puppet show just requires one puppet and the teacher, and is interspersed with Spanish words that the teacher and the puppet can encourage the children to say aloud.

Sheep and horses

(0)
The children can find out what the animals eat, put ears, legs and tails onto shapes (not included) to make horses and sheep, play snap, and sing a memorable song with the opportunity to create actions for it.
The snow monkeys

The snow monkeys

(0)
The children repeat sentences and guess meaning from pictures. Tutor models sentences without the N and asks which letter is missing. The children write in the letter n on the sheets to complete the words. The children sing a song and invent actions for it, which repeats the same sentences.

I'm going to Spain to eat chips

There are big food flashcards. I print 2 each of these. One side of the gym is Inglaterra, and one side is España. Then I say in Spanish: 'I'm going to Spain to eat chips' and the children have to race to the correct picture in the correct country.

Bracelets - inspired by another TES contributor who suggests puttin 2 sheets together and laminating them so they are laminated on one side, then putting a strip of double sided tape down one side before cutting them into bracelets. Also stickers and certificates to make great and cheap Spanish rewards.

A little book which children can add their own name to and the name of their teddy. I use it with a different child each time.
My monster

My monster

(0)
The front sheet is printed and children complete details of their school. Then they choose one of the three monsters, and decide on the number of eyes etc. Once they have written sentences about their monster they can cut it out and stick it to the other side of their front sheet. I show the children how to make opening mouths for the monsters, in the same way as Easter cards have chicks with opening beaks. Then the sentences they wrote go on the very back. Lots of cutting and sticking.

If the children would like a Spanish name for the day then I use these to give them a name and how to say it.
My Spanish Calendar

My Spanish Calendar

(0)
There is an English calendar as a backing sheet, a Spanish copy to provide the words. The words on the Spanish one are cut out and placed over the English words, then they can be stuck in the 'today' spot as a daily activity. Works well laminated and with blu tack. I gave one to each child in a small group to use at home, but would work better blown up to A3 if it is for a whole class.
