This beginners’ Spanish workbook is designed to go with my free, complete 32-lesson Spanish 1A course on YouTube. This workbook contains all the vocabulary, grammar, reading, writing, speaking, and listening activities for my entire first semester of high school or college Spanish 1. [Note: this workbook is copyrighted and is not for copying as handouts. Check my Teachers Pay Teachers store for handout masters for Sp 1.]\n\nFrom the first day, you’ll be learning and using new Spanish vocab with fun activities like drawing stick figures with me, listening to my weird, funny stories, and learning to read, write, understand, and speak Spanish. I’m a Nationally Board Certified Spanish Teacher with 19 years’ experience writing my own curriculum and teaching Spanish at the high school, middle school, and adult levels, and I know how to teach YOU to become fluent in this beautiful, fun, marketable language…the second most-spoken language in the world.\n\nThese lessons are from the standards-based, textbook-aligned curriculum I created and use for high school Spanish I. We’ll cover all the usual Spanish 1 vocab sets that are taught at the high school and college level:\nGreetings and Introductions\nAsking people how they are and where they are from\nTalking about age and birthdays\nNumbers, colors, calendar words, weather expressions, and seasons\nTelling time\nBasic adjectives\nDescriptions of people (appearance\/personality)\nFamily and friends\nTalking about likes and dislikes\nActivities\nClasses, teachers, subjects, supplies, places in a school\nCars, houses, and places around town\nShopping\nSports\nMovies and books\nBasic, common Spanish verbs and verb phrases\nBasic foods\nBasic animals\n\nWe’ll also start learning Spanish grammar along the way:\nNegating verbs\nNouns and articles\nTú and Usted\nSubject pronouns\nInformal commands\nRegular present tense verb conjugations\nCommon verbs like Gustar, Tener, Querer, Hacer, Ir, Venir, Ser and Estar, and Saber and Conocer\nThe personal “a”\n\nI’ll give you plenty of explanation, memory devices, and other tricks to make the vocab and grammar easier to master. But it’s not about memorizing things and forgetting them a week later--you’ll be acquiring Spanish, building fluency in reading, writing, speaking, and understanding from day 1. At the end of this 1A course, if you watch all the videos, participate in the activities, and complete all of the workbook exercises by yourself, you will be able to read a 1300-word story in Spanish off the top of your head with no help, write a narrative essay for 20 minutes in Spanish of at least 100-200 words, tell a basic 10-sentence Spanish story off the top of your head, and understand 80-90% of the language in the new stories I tell you.\n\nThe workbook includes a complete vocab and grammar list in the back as well as vocab lessons, daily warm-up quizzes, storyboards so you can understand the stories a scene at a time, question-and-answer practice, page-long Spanish readings reinforcing the vocab\/grammar content of each story, graphic organizers to aid in learning to write in Spanish, grammar practice, and four free-write essay prompts.\n\nMy YouTube lessons are designed so you can stop wherever you need to and pick back up where you left off when you’re ready. Study on your own time and at your own pace...it’s all right here in the workbook that goes with my free online Spanish lessons on YouTube. If you complete the 32-video course and fill in the entire workbook without cheating, you can use the completed workbook as evidence of first semester Spanish if your institution allows, as well as take placement and\/or proficiency exams in level 1 Spanish for credit.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 169966501X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.169966501X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Waltman, Jalen\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in acceptable condition and may have highlighting and or writing throughout.
