This is just an informal list of resources that I have used in my classroom!
- DonorsChoose. I love this page. I have written and had funded 15 projects to date! These projects consist of a classroom library, flexible seating, class set of books, artwork, odds and ends and so much more. If you need things for your classroom, you will love this site. In fact, if you use my referral link we will both get something for our projects. Sometimes you will recieve a match for your project (so if someone donates $10, you get $20) and other times you will get $50 towards your first project. It just depends...but either way, use my link so that you get something (and I get $25 towards one of my projects). Sounds good right?
- Gimkit.com. This is a site that your students will BEG to play. Mine love it. In fact, as I was writing this a student just asked to play. Try it. You won't regret it.
- Revista Literal is an online magazine written entirely by students and published by Martina Bex. It is 100% comprehensible. Your students are encouraged to submit stories/articles for the magazine as well!
- Where has THIS been all of my life? AND you can change the language to Spanish! Say what?! https://classroomscreen.com/classroomscreen.com
- I stumbled upon this site: Spanish stories with slow audio. The audio is very good for Spanish 2! https://www.thespanishexperiment.com/stories
- I use a random name generator to choose students. The website for the one I use is: https://www.classtools.net/random-name-picker/18_XSZaUm
- http://www.videnteadivinaoraculo.com/ La Bola Magica
- Need a fun way to see if your students understand? Try www.plickers.com. You just need your cell phone and some plicker papers that you can download from the site.
- My students also love kahoot. It's another fun way to access student learning.
- https://martinabex.com Martina Bex is another wonderful Spanish teacher. Like Allison, Martina has a wonderful TPT site plus tons of ideas on her webpage. Plus she is the author of SOMOS and it is the absolute BEST curriculum!
- http://www.brycehedstrom.com Bryce Hedstrom is a TPRS guru! He has some freebies on his webpage that I highly suggest taking a look at!
- http://www.senorashby.com/ Ben is a personal friend of mine. He's also an amazing teacher. He has created a website with tons of lessons, songs, ideas, etc. My students love using Ben's materials!
- http://zachary-jones.com/zambombazo/ Zambombazo has always been one of my favorite sites! Zachary Jones has wonderful resources to use at any level.
- https://www.senorwooly.com/ Sr. Wooly is great if you have $$$ to spend. There are great stories, games, songs, etc. Your students will love this site!
- http://www.videoele.com/menu_contenidos_A1.html Videoele has authentic videos for listening. There are 4 levels too!

- www.veintemundos.com/en/learn-spanish/read-and-listen/ I LOVE this site and I wish I taught Spanish 2 so I could use it more!
The document below was posted by Amy Marshall on the iFLT/NTPRS/CI Teaching Facebook page. It has some awesome game ideas! I also found Amy's youtube channel. She models many of the games and is amazing! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZlv2kL41ogvJgGhuFXTDww
