$5 - $10 World Languages Google Apps (by price, low to high)

Need a fun way to start the year in World Language class?  How about a team-building  game!  This reading about why students should learn another language goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  This is a great way to get the year started with new students, or to provide motivation when you see interest and effort waning.  This activity is in English, and can be used by any World Language class!

All World Language teachers want to motivate and encourage our students, and help them see the value of becoming proficient in the language they’re studying. This story gives 10 teen-friendly reasons why it’s so beneficial to prioritize learning a new language! 

The story revolves around two teens trying to decide what classes to take.  Your students play the role of the mystery solvers.  They have to read all 10 parts of the story to figure out the answer to the final question;  what will the students grow up to be in their career?   While your students read the story parts, they are looking for “code words” in the story.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of teens’  future career.  It’s so much fun! 

After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a “tell me in your own words” summary activity, an opportunity to work with a group and write a story about a adventure the teens will have in their career (which can be done in the TL),  and an activity where they can explore possible careers for bilingual people.   Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

Looking for ways to make writing fun for your Spanish students?  If you need differentiated and engaging activities to help students level up their presentational writing and reading comprehension, this is the resource for you!  Students will write together in groups, help each other by doing a peer edit, and later read and answer questions about the characters they have created. 

Step 1: Students pretend they are the teacher, and need to leave detailed notes about the students in their class for a substitute.  In groups, students follow the specific instructions to describe each student. Each group will get 4 writing sheets which contain a picture of a student and space to write.  There are 20 different students in all. The instructions ask student to describe each person.  What are they like?  What do they like to do?  What are their future plans?  What’s important to them?  Do you have fast finishers?  No problem- there’s an extension activity for them!  They can help you create questions about what they wrote that will be used in step 3!

Step 2:  After taking a quick glance at their work, set students up in pairs.  I usually do this the next day.  They will trade papers and use the peer edit instruction sheet to suggest ways to improve their writing.

Step 3:  Another day, hang the descriptions around the room.  Create simple questions for students to answer while they read around the room!  *This works great as a quick review for a quiz!  Students love it because they are allowed to be out of their seats!

Differentiation:

-This resource comes with differentiated instructions appropriate for Year 3, or Intermediate Low.

-Students can use new vocabulary along with things they already know how to say to create connected sentences, and attempt to use more than one time frame.

-To level this down, change the instructions to include topics students know how to talk about.

-To level this up, change the instructions to ask for more details and require other times frames. 

Who can use this product?

• Students in Spanish 1 through Spanish 4.  It’s easily modified for any level!

How can I use this product?

• Students will work collaboratively in part one.
• Next they work in pairs
• Finally, they will read and answer questions.  This can be done alone, in pairs or in small groups!

What’s included in this product?

• Teacher instructions for all parts of the assignment
• 20 writing pages, each with a unique color image and name of the student
• Instructions for students to explain their purpose and audience
• Editable instructions for what to include in their writing
• Another set of instructions for an honors level class
• A space for you to add your department rubric look-fors
• An extension activity for fast finishers (make questions about what you wrote)

What to turn your Spanish reading comprehension or grammar review into a game?  Using CI to give your students contextualized, comprehensible input?  These reading passages will motivate, engage and deliver all the CI your students need!  

The 1st reading is about how to live a healthy lifestyle. It’s perfect for themes about health, diet and exercise.  Working in groups helps reduce anxiety about answering questions while at the same time allows students to share their reading strategies with others.  The teacher has comprehension questions about the reading (with answers included) so that each set of students has a chance to answer multiple questions.  

Reading 2 is about a teen who convinces her parents to let her have a pet.  Reading 3 is a conversation between 2 teens about an upcoming concert. These themes are taken from the published list of topics from ACTFL that students encounter on the AAPPL Test.

This reading is meant for Intermediate Low students.  Comprehension questions are written in Spanish and answers are included. Any part of this resource can be customized for your students if needed!  Also included are teacher notes and ideas for how to turn the reading passages into a game!

There are 4 guided conversations, so both students will have a chance to ask and answer questions in a conversational way.  Two versions are for Novice High students and 2 versions are for Intermediate students.  

These conversations focus on Hobbie & Free Time mainly in the present time frame.
