I have followed you a lot of years now and still find tips I can and will use ( some things you simply forget to do, like first day seating plan). I love to work in small groups, but change classrooms every hour so….. This will be my last year before retiring so I am trying to take it easy by using all my games and assignments I made the last 23 years🫣 Greetings from The Netherlands, Susan

I studied in the DR and so my language habits often defer to those cultural norms. I use ustedes, though I do teach my students about vosotros!

This is my first time teaching Spanish 1 and 2. I was wondering if I should use the “ustedes” or the “vosotros” form when addressing the students. I am originally from Spain. So, naturally we use vosotros, but I realize that in Latin America ustedes is the common form. I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks again.

I love the idea of a cognates game to show them that they already know more than they realize, and I will definitely do the Que Vamos a Aprender brainstorm.

I often let students adjust a bit after that time period settles. And I hope your Spanish 1s love Taco Tuesday, and realize that they ALREADY know lots of Spanish 😉 !
