Yes! If you’re on the fence about which level to pick, try this placement quiz.
We know every child’s language development, fluency level, academic skill set etc is unique. This tool seeks to serve you in placing your child accurately.
At the end of the quiz we will match you to one of our curricula levels. If we don’t think your child fits any of our curricula levels (this could be due to age / fluency level / or a combo of both), we’ll tell you in the results and provide other recommendations.
No. We are a specialized Spanish language curriculum provider.
Yes! We just launched level 2 (lower elementary) in the summer of 2023.
Level 3 (upper elementary) will launch in 2025. We often get asked if a middle school curriculum from Llamitas is on the horizon. We don’t have a decision just yet, but we will keep you posted!
We run seasonal small sales throughout the year and offer coupons from time to time.
We truly believe in giving more than receiving and each of our products and services is designed by keeping this core principle in mind.

You may use the materials in small classes up to 10 students with your personal licence provided you are the teacher.
The login for the curriculum may not be shared with other parents.
Classes with more than 10 students or more than 1 teacher require an ‘Extended License’.
The Preschool Spanish Morning Binder is designed as a gentle introduction to Spanish first concepts. Essentially, a PRIMER to Level 1.
It develops foundational skills such as learning the Spanish alphabet, introducing syllables, counting 1-20, shapes, colors, animals, weather etc.
It is ideal for younger learners who are not quite ready for a formal curriculum, but can manage simple ‘printables’. Many families use both simultaneously.
The binder is less structured and easier to pick up and put down throughout the homeschool week.
Level 1 is a complete and academic curriculum for Preschool and Kindergarten.
It is a comprehensive program that offers much greater depth in terms of literacy, math and phonics content. Counting goes up to 100 and includes basic addition and subtraction with number bonds. There are far more audio comprehensions, games, songs, art appreciation and stories, all taught through 12 thematic units.
Yes. You can jump straight into level 1 if your child is ready for a more formal curriculum.
Please see the previous FAQ about the difference between the two programs.
Our levels are sequential. If your child is a Spanish beginner, they must complete the Level 1 Curriculum, even if they are in grades 1-3.
Level 1 lays the foundations in Spanish phonics, math and beginning to read in Spanish.
Primaria Baja (Level 2) further develops the concepts taught in level 1 and brings in newer, higher level math and phonics for grade levels 1-3.
Students in Grades 1-3 who are already bilingual or have an intermediate Spanish level can jump right into level 2.
Older students up to age 12 may also benefit from Primaria Baja. It is academic and provides many literacy benefits (like the beautiful anthology full of stories), as well as cultural studies from Spanish speaking countries.
Our program is very popular amongst native and heritage Spanish speakers because we provide bilingual scripts, meaning you can facilitate the lessons in Spanish (read the blue ink), written by a native Spanish speaker.
Your child may already know the thematic vocabulary but will strengthen foundational skills in phonics, early math, comprehension, and more, through materials rooted in Hispanic art and literature.
Of course! We have a lot of families learning Spanish alongside their children.
The Course Book (Libro de actividades) provides scripted lessons in both English and Spanish. English is in purple, which is what you would read.
We also provide native speaker audio, and pronunciation guides for vocab, songs. Even transcripts for the longer audios!
Everything is setup to support you so your experience is fun and stress free!

We totally understand some families want to order multiple curricula levels in print under one transaction (for example, the Preschool Binder + Level 1).
Our shipping for printed products is calculated based on weight + processing fees per product. We also integrate with Thrivecart which does not offer a ‘cart’ feature, so we have to process orders on a course by course basis.
For these reasons purchases for the curricula levels must be made separately.
If you need everything on one invoice, please contact us and we can assist with this by creating a custom order.
Thank you for your understanding
Yes. The Llamitas Spanish levels do not include any religious teachings or biblical content.
Our Holiday and Seasonal Bundle (another course that we offer) includes 7 holiday units with some religious content, since it pertains to the cultural celebrations in Latin America and Spain.
We do! We love working with Charter Schools and families.
