Authentic Spanish Songs: Activity Pack for Upper Elementary & Middle School

Authentic songs in Spanish are incredibly effective and engaging. But for upper elementary and middle school, it can be hard to find appropriate and comprehensible songs.  WIth this packet the work is done for you!

This activity pack was designed to anchor your weekly Spanish songs, so you'll have lyrics, keywords, and activities ready to go. (You can use the regular vertical version, OR the horizontal version that fits neatly into interactive notebooks!)

This activity pack was designed to anchor your weekly Spanish songs, so you'll have lyrics, keywords, and activities ready to go. (You can use the regular vertical version, OR the horizontal version that fits neatly into interactive notebooks!)

Please note these are not complete units. Rather, I created the activities to meet the following goals:

>> Everything fits on ONE sheet. That's right-- you make one copy, per student, per song.

>> Each sheet contains editable key terms and a cloze activity.

>> Each sheet has a least one supplemental activity: listening, reading, search-the-lyrics, writing, or culture.

>> EVERYTHING (except maps and some clip art) IS EDITABLE. Do you want to highlight different keywords? Re-word a paragraph? Adjust the spacing? No problem! Edit away.

>> An answer key is included. All the song videos are embedded in a file from YouTube to easily show in class.

>> With 15 songs included, you get each song for about 75¢!

These songs are taken from my popular Authentic Songs for Upper Elementary blog post, where I break everything down into theme and key structures. Also check out my post on how to use authentic songs in Spanish class.
