10th Grade World Languages Google Apps

Do you struggle to incorporate real-world, authentic reading in your Spanish classroom? This amazing interpretive reading activity about what happens to your body when you stop drinking soft drinks will get your kids reading and analyzing an authentic resource from the Spanish-speaking world. To make this resource even better, it now includes versions compatible with Google Classroom™, perfect for make-up work!

In this activity, your students will:

• identify vocabulary related to health
• determine the main idea
• identify supporting details
• guess the meaning of words based on the context
• answer comprehension questions
• make inferences about the text
• write a personal reaction to the infographic

This reading and writing activity makes a great addition to any health and wellness or food and nutrition unit, from Spanish 2 through AP (as an introduction to the unit). It also makes a great pre-reading activity for an article about soft drinks (there are three suggested articles in the product).

There are five versions of the resource included in a zipped file:

1. version 1 is a printable PDF with all directions and questions in English
2. version 2 is a printable PDF with all directions and questions in Spanish.
3. versions 3 and 4 are editable Google Forms™, one with all directions and questions in English, the other in Spanish.
4. version 5 is a non-editable Google Slides™ resource, formatted just like the printable PDF versions, with added text boxes so that students can type their answers on the slide (while in edit mode) before submitting

PLEASE NOTE: the infographic is NOT included with this product due to copyright laws and you must access it at the following link: infographic. I would recommend printing and laminating the infographic, projecting it on your board, or posting it to Google Classroom, Edmodo, or Schoology for students to access it. Each handout includes the link to the image at the top as well as a QR code to the image at the bottom.

What Other Teachers Say:

Extremely satisfied

These resources totally saved me!! This product has everything I needed (and didn't want to make myself) for those first days and weeks of class. There’s so much included - a slideshow to outline what students can expect in the course, a grading policy, syllabus, a parent letter, LESSON PLANS...the list goes on! I especially like the interview activity and homework activity, and that everything is editable on Google Docs. Whether you’re new to AP or looking to refresh what you have, this has everything you could even think about needing!

Who can use this product?

• AP® Spanish Language and Culture Teachers

What’s included in this product and how can I use it?

Day 1 Google SlideShow: English Version (25 slides)

-On the first day of school, my AP students are so nervous and wondering if they made the right decision to attempt AP Spanish.  They often aren’t certain that they have enough skill to do well.  This slideshow explains what is the same and what is different about AP Spanish, highlighting that they are working to earn 6 college credits!  I share pictures of the many blessings I have in my life as a result of learning Spanish as a way to encourage them to keep studying Spanish.  You never know what doors will be open to you!  At the end of the presentation, I have several “Turn and Talk” questions to ease them back into speaking Spanish.  Many of the beginning slides in this version are in English.  I make a decision year-to-year on which version to use (Spanish or English) based on what I think my students’ needs might be.  I use the English version when fear and anxiety is especially high.

Day 1 Google SlideShow: Spanish Version (25 slides)

-This is the same  presentation as described above- all in Spanish.

Grading Policy (2 pages)

-This grading policy lays out what the grading categories will be and what percentage each one counts for.  It also explains the late work and cheating/plagiarism policies.

Course Syllabus (5 pages)

-This syllabus is written in a combination of Spanish and English.  It is meant to be handed out to students, but also useful for parents or administrators who don’t speak Spanish.  It lays out the course description, the textbooks and resources we use, the grading, attendance, late work and cheating plagiarism policies, and the course calendar. 

What is Language Proficiency? (2 pages)

-As a language teacher, I have been asked the questions “When will I be fluent?”  or “When will my child be fluent” many times.  This handout explains what language proficiency is according to ACTFL, and lists where we hope to start and end the course with students.  It includes the Can-Do statements for each level from ACTFL.

Cheating and Plagiarism  (2 pages)

-This is a comprehensive handout of what, exactly, is and is not allowed when using resources when students need help.  It gives students specific information on what resources are allowed, and how to properly document when they have used a resource.  It explains the academic and behavioral consequences related to infractions.  It requires signatures from both the student and a parent/guardian.

Class Codes (1 page)

-This doc has a spot to list all the join codes for the different things we use.  Mine includes Google Classroom, Remind and the AP Classroom join codes.  I find this helpful to have in case a new student joins the class after the first few days of school.

Country Chart (1 page)

Each semester, students are assigned a country of study where Spanish is spoken.  We use these countries when I ask them to find articles related to specific topics or cultural products, practices and perspectives.  This doc has teacher notes about how to assign countries and how to use small groups to get them talking about their countries!

First Day Interview Sheet (for students) (1 page)

-A Spanish questionnaire to find out more about your new students!  I ask about their interests, strengths, plans, and family.

First Homework:  Our Summer (3 pages- instructions and 2 examples)

-This is an easy and personalized homework assignment that asks students to share a picture and description of something they did this summer.  In class, I have students read others’ work and comment on it as a way to begin building camaraderie. 

College Credit Night: Info Sheet for Parents (2 pages)

-Our school has both an AP Course info night for parents/guardians.  This handout explains what is the same and what is different about AP Spanish compared to Years 1-4.  It highlights how being successful with the AP Exam can lead to earning 6 college credits!

Week 1 Lesson Plans  (6 pages)

-These lesson plans are written for a 5-day school week with 45 minute periods, but can be easily adapted to any school schedule.  The beginning of a school year can be a little dry with all the housekeeping items of passing out papers, seating charts, book distribution, etc.  But these lesson plans incorporate something every day to make sure students are hearing and speaking Spanish right from the first day, while also taking care of the unavoidable tasks.  There are teacher notes and several options so that you can tailor your first week of school to what you and your students will most enjoy!

Parent Letter & Guest Speaker Request  (1 page)

-This is a letter I send home to families (either in handout form or via email).  I introduce myself as their teacher and ask if anyone might be willing to be a guest speaker for our class, or knows someone who would.  I have had amazing guest speakers for my students who talk about how they use Spanish in their careers and/or lives, and it is very motivating for students to see how people use their Spanish outside of our classroom walls!  It’s a wonderful way to involve families too!

Remember that all of these documents are easily modified or edited to be tailored to your exact school and needs!

Administrators, please remember to purchase multiple licenses if you are purchasing this resource for more than one department member!

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!

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!

Do your students struggle with the preterite vs imperfect tenses? Then this amazing fairy tale bundle is just what you've been looking for! This awesome resource with six fairy tales is an easy-to-use and low-prep way to practice the preterite and the imperfect, along with reading comprehension skills.

Students love these stories because they are stories that they are already familiar with, making them more comprehensible, turning this tricky grammar topic from dry and boring to engaging and fun! By purchasing this amazing double bundle, you are saving 25% off the price of the individual resources!

This bundle includes six of my classic fairy tale sets in the past tense:

• Cenicienta (Cinderella) - compatible with Google Classroom™
• Blancanieves (Snow White) - compatible with Google Classroom™
• Rapunzel
• Caperucita Roja (Little Red Riding Hood) - compatible with Google Classroom™
• Los Tres Cerditos (The Three Little Pigs) - compatible with Google Classroom™
• Ricitos de Oro (Goldilocks) - compatible with Google Classroom™

It’s a perfect way to practice and assess your students’ knowledge of the preterite and imperfect tenses in Spanish.

This file includes two versions of each story:

• Version A has the verbs already conjugated, and the students must choose between the preterite and imperfect tenses of the verb.
• Version A also includes true/false comprehension questions and students must correct the false statements.
• Version B includes only the infinitive, so they must first decide which tense to use and then fill in the blank with the correct form of the verb.
• Version B also includes comprehension questions to be answered in complete sentences in Spanish.

Each story is 2-3 pages long. An answer key for both versions of each story is included in the download. The two different versions make differentiation simple!

Each story includes:

• a mini pictorial vocab list in color and black & white
• a mini-PowerPoint (great for pre-teaching key vocabulary)
• a blank six-box storyboard (great for students to illustrate their comprehension of the story)
• answer keys for the stories AND the comprehension questions
• teacher tips page.

All of these great resources are included as a zipped file. Make sure to download the preview to see everything included!

These stories would make great emergency sub plans (10-12 days’ worth of material), homework assignments, or formative assessments. These stories are great for Spanish 2 or as a review of the Preterite vs Imperfect tenses at the beginning of Spanish 3 or 4.

Is reading comprehension getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This story about a mysterious accident goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  

   The students play the role of the crime scene investigator.  They have to read all 10 parts of the story to get the full picture of what took place at the scene of an accident.  While they read the parts, they are also looking for “code words”.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of how this accident happened!  It’s so much fun! 

    After, you can decide which of the 3 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are a True or False Activity, Put Events in Order Activity and Tell Me in Your Own Words Activity. Answer keys are also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

How can I use this product?

Do your Spanish students need some help with interpersonal speaking?  Are they struggling to have partner conversations in Spanish?  Let’s give them some guided support with these guided conversations!  Both students will have the opportunity to ask and answer questions as part of a conversation, but with a lot of scaffolding to build confidence.

There are 4 guided conversations, differentiated for Novice and Intermediate speakers. Each conversation has a Person A and a Person B, each with a role set by the conversation theme. Students are guided with general ideas for how to keep the conversation going!  

These conversations focus on travel and vacation in the past time frame (preterite and imperfect). However, the conversations are designed to be as realistic as possible, and students have the opportunity to use other time frames and give advice if they wish.

Who can use this product?

• Spanish students in year 2 and up

How can I use this product?

• Students will work in partners to participate in a guided conversation
• Students will trade roles so both can practice asking questions and answering questions
• Teachers can assign these conversations as practice or as an assessment
• Students can practice the same conversations with multiple partners to increase comfort and proficiency!

What’s included in this product?

• Teacher notes for how to use these partner conversations in a variety of ways
• 2 guided conversations about travel and vacation for Novice students
• 2 guided conversations about travel and vacation for Intermediate students
• The conversations provide a scenario/topic of conversation
• The conversations provide general ideas about what to ask and answer to make it easier for students to keep their conversation going.
• Novice conversations include the interrogative words to provide a scaffold.
