Inside: Logistics for the 1st week of Spanish class. 1st Week Slideshow to organize Spanish class week 1.

My posts 1st Week of Spanish Class , Unit 1 & 1st Day of Spanish Class have been popular recently.
So, I know that there are many of you out there like myself who obsess over the perfect 1st week plans. I decided to share with you a few more specific logistics that I have been getting ready to make that first week back as smooth as possible.
For reference, at the time of this post, I’m planning for a new position at a new school. Trimester 1 I’ll be teaching Spanish 1-3 as a department of 1. This year I will be teaching Spanish 1-4, Exploratory Spanish & a new Culture & Civilization class Level 1.
1st Week of Spanish Class Slideshow
I have mentioned before that I find it helpful to make a google slide presentation to help with the flow of my classes. I like to have instructions and plans listed in English, so students can see them, and I do not have to spend too much precious time out of the target language explaining activities. This way students can see the plan for the day, and I have reminders of what I was planning on accomplishing.
I am so glad that Sra. Dentlinger mentioned a great new to me site, Slides Carnival. It is full of adorable Google Slides templates that are free to use. Below you can see a few samples of my first week slides.
