Teaching Spanish Lesson Plans

Spanish can be very difficult for beginning speakers to develop and master. This is because the sentence structure, grammar, and conjugation of verbs is often different than in English. It is important to get students creating and using their Spanish in context, so that they can master the language. With Storyboard That, you can leave the creation up to the students with great activities! Make conversational Spanish fun and easy to learn!
