Need an awesome Art Unit? I have just the thing for you! This creative Mandala Design artwork was designed to be printed and displayed as examples while you teach. Use this Google Slide file to display these beautiful images one-by-one on a large screen. For this assignment, I did a demo and taught the class how to use a ruler and a yardstick. Measurements and Math was a strong focus of the lesson. Next, students spent the rest of the first lesson brainstorming an idea for a stencil (¼ of their full Mandala Design. I taught the students how to rotate their stencil to get a Radial Design. Students started on their Final Copy paper and outlined their drawing in sharpie marker. We used large windows to trace our stencils on the final. Students used colored pencils, colored sharpies, or watercolor paint to color their Mandala Design. I hope you and your kiddos love this!

Spanish Collaborative Writing & Reading Activities: Teen Life
By Specialty Spanish
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.

Le trésor de Chambord - french digital escape room
By Frenchified
Learn about the history and architecture of Chambord in this fun digital escape game - no prep and great for distance learning!
One version is entirely in English so your level 1 and 2 students can enjoy the game. The clues are a little tricky, but the information pages are in English so it will be challenging but not too challenging.
The other version is in French for upper levels. The clues are a little clearer in what the students are looking for, but the information pages are in French so they will still be challenged. The only clue that is NOT in French is a video about the castle - there was not a video in French that had the right information that I thought would be easy enough for French learners to understand, and I would not want them to be frustrated.
The game comes with a complete teacher guide for both versions of the game with the clues and answers so you can give your students a little bit of a hint if they get stuck.
Digital escape games are a fun way to start a unit, or to review at the end of a unit. They can also be used to learn about a cultural or historical event. This game will have your students reading carefully and paying attention to the smallest details in order to complete the challenge and unlock the locks.
This item includes:
Your students will enjoy learning without even realizing that they are learning! The challenging game format will get them excited about finding the code to unlock each lock - and the format of the clues for each lock will have them paying close attention - there's no way to solve the puzzles without being 100% focused!
Topics in this game include:
Prep is very easy - you just need to share the website URL with your students. You may want to test the site before you use it, just to make sure nothing is blocked by your district. As some of the clues can be challenging to unlock, you may choose to help your students with the trickier ones. With the teacher guide, you will have the answer key - so you can help guide students towards the correct answer by giving them hints, or if you have limited time, you can adjust the game by reducing the number of locks they need to unlock - just give them the answer(s) to help the activity fit your time constraints.
