Are you looking for a fresh, exciting way to introduce elementary-aged students to the Spanish language? Let me introduce you to Aventuras in Learning, a language program I’ve been developing with Valentina Correa, and it’s finally here!
Aventuras in Learning is an educational program created for world language educators, especially elementary Spanish teachers. Our stories are designed to help students acquire the language naturally while also getting to know other cultures through the characters’ adventures. From storytelling to hands-on crafts, the program incorporates a variety of creative tools that engages students’ attention while building their language skills. Whether they’re learning simple phrases, animal sounds, or vocabulary related to everyday life, they’ll feel like they’re on an adventure every step of the way!
Imagine walking into your classroom with everything you need to teach confidently from day one—engaging lessons, creative activities, and a plan that sets you and your students up for success. Aventuras in Learning is designed to save you time and energy while keeping your students engaged and acquiring the language through our characters and their exciting stories.
The program features stories tailored to three different levels. This example comes from one of our Level 1 stories, where learners understand and engage with very basic stories that use repetitive and predictable language. They recognize key words and the main idea. Typically, these learners are new to the language or have had minimal exposure to it.
In this story is called La ardilla y la bellota. In this adventure, a squirrel sets out to find acorns, helping your students learn colors and high-frequency words like “quiere,” “busca,” and “hay.”
And fun digital activities to continue engaging your students with the story while acquiring the language!
Read the story aloud to your students!
