Panteras Negras

My son wrote a research story for his 5th grade class about black panthers. Through his writing I learned a lot about black panthers that I didn’t know before, like they are actually jaguars and leopards, not their own species! I enjoyed the story so much that I asked him to tell it with me.

 

This story is in the third person and the present tense. Important vocabulary in the story includes: “pantera” (panther),“depredador” (predator), “presa” (prey), “hogar” (home), and “genial” (cool/neat).

No matter where you are in your language journey, stories will help you on your way. You can find a transcript of the story and read along at https://smalltownspanishteacher.com/2025/03/24/simple-stories-in-spanish-panteras-negras/ 

If you would like to send money to my son for his hard work, just write "for John" in the comment.
