For the summer, I have a few fun activities planned, and you can adapt them for your own students or family!
Spanish Bingo: I present the students with 20 words that are illustrated in a grid, with the Spanish word beneath each one. They will color and repeat the words, and then cut out the squares (you can use index cards, cut outs from magazines, or stickers, or even The Memory Game, just look up the words beforehand.) On a separate grid or BINGO Cards - we do 4 x 4 so there are only 16 spaces, and no free spot - we place each picture. As the word is called out (in Spanish), the student flips the card over as his "marker." Four in a row wins! Of course, the student must name the items in Spanish to get the prize!

Spanish Activities: Remember, the key to acquiring a second language is motivation. So, keep this summer nice and light - we're making piñatas, maracas, and other instruments, as we learn some simple words (even one a day!) and phrases to go along with each activity. To reproduce this simplicity, you can use Spanish Fun Activity Calendar,
Flip Flop Spanish Flash Cards: Verde (Cards),
Spanish: Level 3 (Skill Builders (Rainbow Bridge Publishing)) ,
or Let's Learn Spanish Coloring Book (Let's Learn Coloring Books)
Remember, the key is fun and light! Just using CD's over the summer will also help it all to stay fresh in your head. Have fun this summer with Spanish!
