Hablo Espanol!: Creative Activities To Teach Basic Spanish »

An increasing number of elementary schools are adding foreign language programs to the curriculum, knowing that young children have a natural ability to learn and appreciate new languages. Children are simply captivated by the sounds of a different tongue! If you are looking for a way to capitalize on this fascination and make your language program more meaningful and motivating, then this is the resource for you.

Hablo Espanol! was written to add a creative and interactive dimension to any primary language program. Each lesson introduces a set of thematically-related Spanish vocabulary words and is designed as an interactive learning experience: students cut, color, and paste to construct each project. After finishing each activity, the pages are inserted into individual student booklets. The final product is a personalized book which students can use to learn and review Spanish vocabulary.

In addition to the vocabulary-based projects, this resource includes a group of research activities, a rewarding and motivational certificate, and instructions and patterns for creating an accompanying Spanish bulletin board.

After introducing your class to the Spanish language through these delightful activities, your students will stand up and proudly announce, "iHablo Espanol!"
