AB Within the education system, Czech schools typically have considerable freedom with regard to educational content. This phenomenon is evident in the increasing range of didactic resources for teaching, especially textbooks. The situation, however, allows teachers to use their own supplementary didactic materials to improve their teaching process. Most common are worksheets created by teachers, often with the support of European projects. The quality of textbooks is generally evaluated before publication. Worksheets created by teachers, on the other hand, may be put to immediate use in the classroom, so quality may be compromised. The author of this article attempts to describe the current situation regarding the creation of worksheets. He highlights the fact that there is no theoretical basis for their production, and no evaluation of the quality and application of these worksheets in the teaching of Spanish. He also outlines ways to solve this deficit and potential problems in the process of investigation into this topic. ER
