Welcome!
How often do your foreign
language students
get really excited by what they are learning in your class?
Picture this. You teach
a unit on Spanish art. One morning, weeks later, your
students scramble to get through the door first to announce that they saw Picasso's "Guernica"
on the news last night. The tell you that their parents were
amazed and impressed when they explained the significance of the
painting and how it related to that particular newscast.
Imagine the satisfaction your students feel
when family and friends ask them "How do you know all that?"
Imagine your own satisfaction when more students than ever want to be in
your class next year.
This is how
we encourage students to become lifelong learners - by using the
language beyond the classroom for personal enjoyment and enrichment.
And providing that opportunity for your students is the best
way to build a strong four- to five-year foreign language
program at your school.
Cultural units that combine both sizzle and
substance comprise only one of the types of teaching materials offered
at Bravisimo! You will find standards-based units for literature,
language and cultural instruction, complete with copy-ready
lesson plans and materials for your intermediate and
advanced level classes.
Check out our library of lesson plans and class
materials for Spanish
and see for yourself!
We know you
have lots of ideas and would love to do more creative things
in your classroom, but really, who has time to come up with
new materials all the time? These units will become
favorites that you and your students will enjoy year after
year.
