This is one of my FAVORITE LESSONS from The Comprehensible Classroom!!! The readings are fantastic and I always love the Cultural aspects that are incorporated! This unit really got my Spanish I students thinking about their futures!!

My students enjoyed this unit. It led to a lesson on classes and talking about which classes we like/dislike. We especially enjoyed the university assignment at the end.

I love using all of Martin's products! They are engaging, low prep and comprehensible at all levels. I used this to supplement Somos Flex. It worked perfectly for me and my students. Gracias, Martina!

I used this as a precursor to a speaking project. Buying this unit for the song by Nubeluz alone was worth it! So catchy! And comical

Not only has SOMOS curriculum proven to maintain my kiddos engaged, but their ACQUISITION has gone through the roof in comparison to my old ways. Love them!
