Teacher tip

Before the sheet, walk to the door, wave and say adiós, then walk back in and say hola. Kids remember greetings they see acted out.

How to use it

  • Greet the class in Spanish at the door every morning and wait for a Spanish answer.
  • Act out short scenes with two puppets or two volunteers.
  • Say every Spanish word out loud and have kids echo it before they read or write it.

Watch for

Saying buenas noches as a greeting in the afternoon. It is for the evening and bedtime.

Talk about it

  • What do you say in the morning? At night?
  • How do you say that in Spanish?

Pair kids up to greet three classmates in Spanish and ask their names.
