Hi Jenny,

The Spanish teacher at our elementary school recommended A-Z Reading (or Raz-Kids).  She uses it with her native speakers. It is a paid subscription, but your district might have it.  Tumble Books might be another resource available through your public library, too.

I love the camera idea Kate suggested. Good luck! :)

This may not be relevant, but when I had primary students who came straight from China without any English, I gave them a camera.  They captured things around the school, at lunch, at recess, etc. that they wanted to learn the words for.  They took pictures of signs, posters, equipment, teachers, etc.  They then made their own "dictionary" using tech with images and we helped with words.  It was awesome!

Dear colleagues,

This year for the first time we have students (first grade) who are spanish speakers and I am looking for great resources to support their learning. They are learning to read (cannot read English or Spanish).

I have shared Epic, Tales2Go, PebbleGo, and Worldbook with their teachers. 

Are their other websites that you would recommend? Places to get books that would support them?

Thank you in advance!

Jenny

“The best way to measure how much you've grown isn't by inches or the number of laps you can now run around the track, or even your grade point average-- though those things are important, to be sure. It's what you've done with your time, how you've chosen to spend your days, and whom you've touched this year. That, to me, is the greatest measure of success.” - R.J. Palacio, Wonder
