Fun With Spanish Numbers
​
In this group of activities, there are two games and one activity. The theme for all three is numbers.
-
A Pescar. This game is essentially Go Fish. You can put the students in pairs or small groups. You will need a deck of cards for each group.
-
Batalla Naval. This game is essentially Battleship. The instructions are on the first page of the game.
-
Creating Numbers. Students will cut the numbers from the bottom of the page and generate numbers from the numbers they cut. They’ll write them down on their paper and exchange it with a partner. Then the partner will write out the number in Spanish. For this activity you will need scissors for the students. Great for students who benefit from manipulatives!

Authentic Listening and Reading Activities: Seasons of the Year in Spanish: Here are 2 AUTHENTIC activities that help students practice reading about and listening to a text about seasons of the year in Spanish.
The listening activity is based on a Doki video, located at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0mPiVqLYQg. It is for young children, which I've found tends to work well for Spanish 1 students. The activity is DIFFERENTIATED, based on level of difficulty.
The reading activity is based on the equinoxes and solstices. The texts are basic images. One image is of equinoxes and solstices. The other is about the different seasons of the year. Both can be found on my website https://gramatichica.wixsite.com/laprofesoragil/el-tiempo. Just scroll down to the "Other Activities" section and look for the two images. This activity is also DIFFERENTIATED, based on level of difficulty. Because the images are not mine, you will need to download these two images and insert them into the texts once you've purchased this activity. The images are free to download, so you won't be charged for them.
Everything's written in Word, so you can edit as necessary. I've found both to be appropriate for Spanish 1.
