AP Spanish® teachers: save time searching for the right video for your students! This Google Doc contains links to TWO YouTube videos and a viewing guides perfect for Unit 6: Los retos ambientales. One video has an auto-grading Edpuzzle version! The accompanying comprehension questions are digital for distance learners and printable for in-person learners, and they are customizable to make them just right for your students’ needs! 

Have students watch these videos to get a sense of some of the problems we face with our environment. One video talks about 5 specific problems in Mexico, their causes and their consequences. It is a short video, but the narrator speaks rather fast. This resource comes with a comprehension guide in graphic organizer format, or you may choose to use the multiple choice Edpuzzle version. I find that the Edpuzzle version is a good scaffold to aid student comprehension because the questions can be inserted right after the information has been provided! This Edpuzzle is also auto-graded to save you time and to give students instant feedback! The second video is about what would happen if all the ice in the world were to melt. It talks about the possibilities and the human and animal consequences that would occur. This video is accompanied by short answer comprehension questions.

Of course, both viewing guides come with a teacher answer key, and all questions can be edited to suit your needs!

Environmental challenges is a great theme to explore as a Global Challenge, or as part of the Science and Technology Unit.  These videos could be a great source for a debate as this topic can be controversial!

Who can use this product?

• Students at the Intermediate level of the ACTFL proficiency chart or higher
• AP Spanish® Students

How can I use this product?

• Assign these videos and viewing guides for in-class or for homework
• Ask students to discuss the information they heard about in the videos.  Ask provocative questions and get students to play devil’s advocate to support the other side!
• Use small group or whole-class instruction to discuss the bias in these videos
• Use the information students learn from the videos as sources for students to use to debate whether or not these environmental challenges will really result in the consequences presented in the videos
• Works well with Unit 4 or Unit 6 of the AP® curriculum!

What’s included in this product?

• Two links to curated YouTube videos
• Information about how long each video is
• 2 Google Docs with comprehension questions  (one for each video, all questions in Spanish)

An engaging way to begin a unit on economics! This fun and hands-on activity will have students explore the important concepts of human needs versus wants through an engaging rocket ship simulation. Students will be vicariously drawn into an emergency situation in which they must collaborate, and agree as to what items they consider as ‘essential’ for their survival on their rocket ship mission to live on a far away planet. An interactive Slide Presentation will help guide the groups on their journey… along with prompting students to delve deeper by examining the broader issues of sustainability, waste, and identifying the main differences between ‘developed’ and ‘developing’ countries.

Materials:

• Teacher Reference Guide
• Slide Presentation
• Handouts:
