I like this unit. It would still be nice to edit them to go along with the vocabulary we are teaching. How do you use you survey and FB activity in class with your students?

I am sorry, I think the price should be way lower for this resource. It is a good concept, but I think it looks poorly executed and rushed in development. Maybe some original artwork...I also could not access it as easy as my other purchases.
May 13, 2013
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
Thank you for your purchase. This product took many hours of work and development. We did not include original artwork, since we are Spanish teachers, not artists. The price is more than fair after searching TPT, the 1st family packet I found was also 36 pages - for $12. We pride ourselves on providing teachers with high quality and accurate products at low prices.

Help! I just bought this how do I open it without purchasing a $39 unzipping file?
May 20, 2013
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
You do not need to purchase an unzipping file. If you are using windows, windows software has a built in zip file opener.
Right click on the zip file, click extract all, select a location to send the files, hit extract.
If you cannot get them opened, contact TPT (they know how to operate all computer systems) or email us at sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com and we will troubleshoot from there.

Hi Ladies,
I just recently discovered TpT and have been exploring the site---you have great products. Took the plunge and bought my first product ---your Spanish Sports flashcards. Looking forward to using them, though arrived in PDF format, so hopefully I can save as PPT and cut out all the sports that we don't cover. :)

The PPT is not included in that product. The original PPT is available at our store including animation and sound. It is a great way to introduce/review sports vocabulary.

April 9, 2013
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
I would not show it to 8th grade Spanish 2 students. Cautiva is more appropriate for juniors or seniors in high school. For 8th grade students, I would recommend Goal! The Impossible Dream, La Misma Luna, and Viva Cuba.

sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
When you go to download the product, choose to save it (instead of open it), and then it will open as a ppt file. Try that and if it doesn't work, email us at sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com and we will email you the file. I am going to contact TPT again as I think this is a problem in their system.

Yes, it does have the game board as well as many other fun activities for St. Patty's Day. Here is the link.

skoker re: La Misma Luna Movie Packet and Immigration Unit
I teach Spanish to 6th grade middle schoolers. Would a packet this in-depth be beneficial or would your product for multiple culture movies work better?
March 1, 2013
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
Depends on your goal. How many movies do you want to show? If you only want to show one movie, then La Misma Luna is fantastic! There are so many various activities and a lot of great cultural information included in this packet. If you plan to show multiple movies, then the packet for multiple movies would be great, too. However, we highly recommend them both. :o)

No, we have several of the videos available on our site (www.sparkenthusiasm.com) and I am sure there are lots available on Youtube. Each song teaches a different grammatical topic, so you can feel free to use whichever songs best fit your class. :o)

The songs are for a variety of grammatical topics and levels from beginning through advanced. Some songs are for the present tense through the imperfect subjunctive.

Debbie48 re: Fun Spanish Jeopardy Game (Vocabulary, Grammar, La Navidad & Culture)
I need some assistance. I bought this computer recently and have Adobe Reader X installed. However, when I tried saving it, it gave me the option to save in pictures. I changed it to documents and then, it did not give me access to open it with Adobe Reader. Now I am only viewing the powerpoint (jeopardy game) but the instructions and other information I cannot access.
December 7, 2012
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
I am not sure. Generally you want to save a copy (or picture) in a pdf because if you try to put it in a document it generally messes up the formatting. I would try re-downloading the file from TPT (which you can do for free) to see if it will then allow you to save it as something different. I would also try the support on TPT, they generally know how to open every file in every program. Let us know if this works and if you need any additional assistance from us. sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com

If so, i am looking for Chapter 2 material for the Buen Viaje unit Cursos y Alumnos. Can you make a recommendation if you are familiar with this book.
Thank you for your time. I am going to purchase your Sports material regardless.

Hello, I just bought this product and I cannot access it because it says its a zipped file. Can you please help me?
July 22, 2012
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
You should have a program to extract the files on your computer to open it. We use zip files so we are able to include many files in one product. Here is advice from my tech friends on the web:
All you have to do is double click on the file, then on the side after you open it, it says:
Extract All Files
Then extract it, so you can open files from there.
Let us know if you have any more difficulties! sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com!

Some example questions that we use are: What clothing do people wear when they go on vacation to the mountains? What are some popular pets that people in the United States own? Like I mentioned, there are versions we have already created that include questions about such topics as clothing, body parts, reflexive verbs, etc. Please let us know if we can help out any further. Have a great school year and thank you so much for your purchase.

soyaguas re: La Misma Luna Movie Packet and Immigration Unit
for what level SPanish would this be appropriate? Are the Spanish (speaking, writing, listening) activities appropriate for level 1?
February 10, 2012
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
There are some activities that would work for level one. I use most of the activities from the packet with level 2 kids. However, the immigration quiz, the information about citizenship, the opinion survey, etc. are all in English. The vocabulary is in Spanish/English, all Spanish and all English so it can be used in all levels. I hope that helps you with your decision whether to buy. This movie is such as great film. I hope your students enjoy watching it!

Hola! I just purchase your speaking game, "El Gato". It seems like it will be fun. I am just trying to make sense of it. I'm just curious as to why you have both students mark their boards, when just one student answers correctly? Is this simply to encourage cooperative learning? Maybe I am not understanding something but it seems to me, the both students will win at the same time every round if they play this way?? Or am I just not getting it! Please help! :)Also, I emailed you another question about 11 days ago: Where is the best place to obtain a copy of the movie, The Princess and the Barrio Boy?" Mil gracias por tu ayuda!

sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
Hello, Jennifer! Thank you for your purchase! El Gato is similar to Tic Tac Toe. If student X answers correctly for #5, both students place an X in the #5 box. Now student X owns that box. Then, student O chooses to try to answer a different question such as #3. If student O answers number 3 correctly, both students put an O there, and student O owns that box. Please email me at sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com if this still does not make sense. Have fun!

ckozy re: Viva Cuba Movie Packet and Cuba Unit in Spanish
Can this movie be shown in a public high school?
December 19, 2011
sparkenthusiasm (TpT Seller)
We show it at our public high schools, but it depends on the culture of your school. Are you allowed to show movies? As with any movie, I recommend previewing the movie before and then decide if it teaches the content you want your students to learn. It is a sweet movie with excellent examples of Cuban culture and language.

The Family Feud game says it works with any Smartboard. I don't have a smartboard. Can I simply use the powerpoint?

Yes, of course. The Family Feud game works with Power Point, but is also compatible with a SmartBoard. Please contact us with future questions or feedback any time. Hope your students enjoy the game!

There are free instructions in our store in Spanish and in English. There are also tips on how to use the Power Point in the notes of the Power Point. The questions are all linked with hyperlinks that will always take you back to the main game board as long as you are in show mode. If you can email me more specific questions to sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com I will be more than happy to help in any way that I can. :o)

Hi,
I just purchased your all Spain unit, and it says it corresponds with power point slides. Is the power point a separate purchase? If so, which one is it? Thanks.

Mac compatible? Is there double and final jeopardy? Is there automatic scoring? Thanks. Jane

Yes, there are double and final Jeopardy. We have the first student in each row keep score, no auto scoring. The game was made with Powerpoint 2003 on a PC, so not sure if it is Mac compatible.

On some computers, it may be necessary to hit save instead of just open when you download a file. Please try that, and if it still is not working for you, please contact us at sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com, and we will email you the file(s) you need.

Hola. All of the slides are in English on the English version of the ppt. The teacher script, which has tons of additional information the teacher can share with students, is in English and in Spanish, also. There are both basic crosswords in addition to the advanced crosswords with this unit. Please email me at sparkenthusiasm@gmail.com if you need further assistance. By the way, there is a free Quinceanera ppt and a free Cinco de mayo ppt on this site as well as on our site in English.
