Hi, I'm Liz.
I've spent a decade in education — as a Spanish teacher, a curriculum designer, and a content team lead in large, diverse schools. I started making my own materials because I couldn't find activities that were rigorous and actually usable on a Tuesday with thirty-two kids and no planning period.
What I care about is comprehensible input that hooks students in the first two minutes — stories they want to follow, and scaffolding that makes the language reachable for every learner in the room, not just the ones who were already going to be fine.
Everything for the first weeks of Spanish 1
Low-prep, comprehensible-input resources for novice learners in middle and high school. All of it lives in my Teachers Pay Teachers store.

Spanish 1 Back to School Bundle
Ten resources covering the first two to three weeks — saludos, mandatos, cognados. Stop building September from scratch.
-
Unit 1 Bell Ringers
Eight projectable warm-ups, about five minutes each. The routine that holds everything else together.
-
Cognates Matamoscas Game
The flyswatter game. Students find out they can already read more Spanish than they thought, and it gets loud.
