I use parts of this as an extension in Spanish 1. Students especially like learning about the ñus and doing some of the activities like the sentence strips.

This was such a unique resource! Students liked hearing a male voice for once and he seemed very relatable! I can't wait to see the activities that are yet to come!

I am absolutely in love with this resource. I love that this can bring an element of authenticity to my classroom while staying much closer to 100% comprehensible for my students. I also love that there are lesson plans and activities to go with it. I will be using this every year!
