Super awesome for my Spanish 2/3 students. It was relevant and really nice for them to read something different than what we usually do.

More great reading comprehension resources for my kids to learn from during distance learning. They're always scaffolded so well and the followups are so engaging. This one was great because it was more broad than just futbolistas.

My Spanish 1 students read a couple of these after a unit on Sports, in the second semester of Spanish 1. They did need a lot of support from me, so if you're planning to use this activity for independent work, I would recommend waiting until Spanish II or only for more proficient students. As a class activity with support, it worked well.
