Spanish Fairy Tale Writing Project 
This 2-3 week Spanish lesson plan is a fun fairy tale project which combines grammar, advanced vocabulary, a speaking component, and advanced verb tenses. This can be used any time of year, but it works especially well as an end of year, final Spanish project.

Use this Todo Sobre Mí guided monologue template to give your Spanish students a format to give an oral presentation about themselves.







 El Alfabeto y el Armadillo

 French Selfie Project Les Loisirs
