**Note that you can also purchase an Excel version of Trio that you customize for each of your lessons. Students help you create the game at the beginning of the lesson, including answering questions and illustrating sentences that use current vocabulary and grammar.
You simply enter some basic information: the name of the lesson you are on, the phrase "I don't know" in your language, and 9 questions with 5 possible answers each.
Excel will create the cards and partially fill them in. Your students do the rest as a practice activity as they are learning the vocabulary and grammar of the lesson.
At the end of the lesson, students can play the game, reviewing everything they have been studying.
key words: Avancemos; vocabulary; chores; quehaceres

I have 23 years of experience in the classroom. I've taught Spanish most of my career, with a few years of Language Arts thrown in. I spent 13 years at the middle school level, and am in my 9th year at high school. I love both levels, and often can't believe how lucky I am to be in this profession. I taught a Spanish Teaching Methods course at BYU as an adjunct professor for two semesters, and loved that experience. When I retire from public school, my goal is to get a doctorate and start a second career at the university level.
