Built for the teacher who keeps re-teaching commands because nobody owns the unit yet. This pack covers informal tú and vosotros, formal Ud./Uds., and negative commands across 6–10 days (or as a targeted top-up when commands resurface). Ships as editable Word + PowerPoint, both opening cleanly in Google Docs / Slides. Pacing table is calibrated to ACTFL performance descriptors. Includes a No, David! children's-book input sequence, Barcelona directions task, and a form-meaning practice block built on Norris & Ortega's robust meta-finding that form-focused instruction with meaningful tasks outperforms drill-only. The structural value is the calibration. The activity content is yours to shape.

Why this works.
Form-focused instruction with meaningful tasks outperforms drill-only practice.
Commands are introduced through structured input before students produce.
Negative commands have a counter-intuitive form for L1-English learners; explicit contrast helps.
Commands are an Intermediate-tier feature scaffolding to Advanced uses.
