I currently teach Spanish One, this is an introductory course to Spanish and most of my students had never been exposed to the language in their lives. Also, many of my students have never traveled outside this small community and have very limited exposure to other cultures and languages.

Because of budget cuts and limitations I have 40 students in each of my 5 sections of Spanish One that I teach. I have limited supplies to make learning the language fun and engaging.

The resources I need are dry erase white boards and dry erase markers for each of my students to practice conjugating verbs in the Ar form. Instead of having my students do drill and kill practice with the verbs I want them to play games where they each get to have their own white board and marker that way they compete against others to see who conjugates the verb correctly. I have tried it with just white paper, but it just doesn’t really work we end up wasting too much paper and it's hard to make corrections.

With your generosity you will help my students learn to conjugate verbs in a fun and engaging way and at the same time you will help us save paper. Thank you on behalf of all of my Spanish One Students.
