What educators are saying

My students enjoyed these stories very much! It is very difficult to find stories just in the preterite and these stories definitely achieved that!
Worked well with SPA 2 class. Adjusted and gave a word wall as an accommodation for students who require it.

Description

Spanish Preterite Tense TPRS Stories are understandable for students who have not yet studied the imperfect tense. Students read, listen to, write, and talk about events in the past: Six original stories with accompanying activities that provide comprehensible input to practice preterite Spanish. Digital versions are included for distance learning. Appropriate for middle and high school students.

TESTIMONIALS:

  • “The stories are different enough to keep kids interested while also being able to incorporate the same vocabulary. This kept my students busy for one week while we learned the preterite. Definitely worth the money.”

  • “Fun stories with a good variety that I can continue to use throughout the year. My students enjoy acting these out and seeing how much they can understand.”

  • “My students had great fun acting out one of these stories. Very happy with my purchase.”

Six original TPR stories, all in Spanish, with accompanying activities:
