Spanish Cognates UNIT BUNDLE (Updated for DISTANCE LEARNING!)

Product Description

Welcome your students to Spanish with los cognados!

Implement these fun lesson plans and activities for beginning Spanish students to help them feel a sense of accomplishment and confidence as they start their first year of Spanish! Use these as a five-day unit of lesson plans, or just pick and choose from the included activities to fit your classroom and your needs!

Included:
  • Presentation for use in Google Slides or PowerPoint to guide your students through the activities and lessons
  • Two different readings and activities to introduce your students to cognates. One reading is shorter than the other so you could use them as differentiation options, or just save one for a different point of the year!
  • Listening activities practice a range of different skills, from recognition to comprehension! Great for novice learners!
  • Use the ¡Corre en Círculos! activity to have some fun movement-based practice with a variety of cognates.
  • Games to engage your students in a variety of ways while applying their understanding!
  • Use word search pages as homework, an after test activity, for fast finishers, as sub plans, or with some of my other seasonal activities to complete your lesson!
  • A quick quiz that's perfect to assess your students' understanding and application of cognates in their language learning.
  • ALL student activities include DIGITAL VERSIONS for use with Google Slides or Google Forms!

The bonus file is five-day lesson plans including everything you need to teach a mini-unit using COGNATES at the beginning of Spanish 1!

From introduction, to reading, writing, listening, and more, students will learn to look for and use cognates as a tool to help them be successful in your language classroom!

I designed this unit with daily 50 minute lessons in mind, but the presentation is editable so you can tweak things to fit your classroom and schedule!

Feedback

Wonderful practice that made the students realize they know some Spanish and can figure some things out! I especially loved the listening and reading passages.

Great unit- I used it the first week of the semester to help instill confidence in my kiddos!

I used this with my middle schools classes as sub plans. The students enjoyed it as did my non-Spanish speaking sub.
