Spanish Steps Online

Who Are We?
Spanish Steps is a unique company that designs and develops step-by-step instructional materials to help maintain open lines of communication between our schools and our families that speak other languages. With English-language learners continuing to rapidly increase in the U.S., communicating with them and their families may be challenging. Spanish Steps materials immediately allow educators and other school personnel to open and maintain meaningful communication with English-language learning students and their parents.

Our workbooks are ideal for professional development workshops, ESL classes, language learning classes, conferences, seminars and related activities. The focus of our workbooks is parental involvement and open communication. Don’t be fooled by our name! We have an array of materials in other languages as well, such as Chinese, Somali, Hmong, Arabic, and Russian, just to name a few!

Our materials are designed for general, pre-school and special education teachers, school bus drivers, school nurses, front office staff, translators, interpreters and school administrators.
