K-12 Resources

CLASP promotes all facets of Latin American studies nationwide by fostering global competency, language proficiency, and cultural awareness of Latin America and the Caribbean. To serve K-12 educators, we oversee initiatives such as the Américas Book Award; acknowledge the efforts of dedicated teachers through the K-12 Teaching Award; and facilitate finding quality resources by compiling information about quality teaching resources and opportunities produced by our network of 50+ member institutions.

All of the resources we list here are produced by CLASP or its member institutions and are available at no cost to K-12 educators. For more information, we encourage you to browse the following:
