English to Spanish reading guide

Create Spanish reading passages from a lesson you already chose

Spanish Remix starts with an English passage you already chose and creates a separate version in natural Latin American Spanish. The original English passage remains available, so both versions can stay connected to the same topic, lesson direction, and classroom conversation.

This can help bilingual classrooms, dual-language programs, ELL and ESL support, tutoring, and Spanish-speaking families use familiar content without searching for an unrelated second text.

Keep the passage and its questions together

The Spanish passage is saved as its own connected version. It receives comprehension questions and answers written for the translated text in Spanish, rather than reusing English questions beside a new passage.

Adults can use the English version for instruction and the Spanish version for language access, previewing a topic, checking understanding, or reading together at home.

Use the Spanish version online or on paper

Open the Spanish passage online for reading and comprehension practice, or use its available printable materials for small groups, tutoring, homework, intervention, and reading at home.

Spanish Remix is included with PicoBuddy Pro and Max and does not use creation credits. Open a passage from the catalog or one you created, choose Remix, and select Spanish as the target language.
