Day of the Dead Dia de Muertos Scavenger Hunt Reading Game Spanish/English

By Specialty Spanish

Want your Spanish students to learn about Day of the Dead , but  reading comprehension is getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This mystery-solving reading about Día de Muertos  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!  Use the same lesson plan for all of your classes, regardless of level, because your differentiation is already done!

   Students investigate with Maria, a young person from Mexico, while she tries to understand more about a former member of her town.  He visits the townspeople all year, not just during Día de Muertos.  Why can’t he rest in peace?   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/why he died.   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 graphic organizer for students to learn more about the specific items related to Day of the Dead, a “tell me in your own words” activity,  and a writing follow up where students use their reading comprehension and critical thinking to invent an explanation for who this lost soul was and why he died the way he did.  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!

The reading cards are written in English for your Novice classes, and Spanish for Intermediate classes.  The questions are written for Novice in English and answers will be in English as well. And for Intermediate, the questions and answers will be in Spanish.  The same for the instructions and mission!  Students get the benefit of learning about a cultural event while using teamwork!

Who can use this product?

  • Students in Year 1 and up

How can I use this product?

  • Print out the reading cards (10)
  • Hang them up around your room
  • Print and copy the answer sheet
  • Let students loose to solve the mystery! 
  • Assign follow-up activities if you wish

What’s included in this product?

  • Everything!  No prep beyond print and photocopy!
  • Teacher instructions and hints
  • 10 reading cards (English), 10 reading cards (Spanish)

AP Spanish Lesson Plans for the Whole Year without a Textbook + Test Prep

By Specialty Spanish

Back To School is here! The AP Spanish Language and Culture® Complete Lesson Plans for the Whole Year includes EVERYTHING you need to teach this course without being tied to a particular textbook!  Lesson plans are written by unit, and include specific, step-by-step instructions, # of minutes per activity, and every activity is linked into the lesson plans.  That means:

-no searching a folder for a particular activity!

-no searching the internet for authentic materials!

-no scrambling to make scaffolds and supports to make your materials accessible!

-no guesswork as to how or what to teach next!

Perfect for:

*Teachers teaching this course for the first time

*Teachers who need a refresh after teaching the course for a while

*Teachers feeling overloaded with all the responsibilities of the job

You can expect the following in each unit of study:

-a table that lists the types of activities and how many of each there are (view these in the previews)

-a table of learning objectives for each class for the entire unit (view these in the previews)

*Click HERE to download the learning objectives and activity count*

-Google Docs lesson plans with daily learning objectives, step-by-step instructions, teacher tips and explanations, and activities linked in

-embedded direct instruction and practice for the different parts of the AP Spanish® Exam

-Lessons organized by 3 45 minute periods and 1 90 minute period (our school uses a modified block schedule). The lesson activities are easy to move around to meet your school's schedule!

When we unexpectedly went to distance learning, I had to scramble as an AP Spanish® teacher. My students did not have access to their textbooks or the audio that went with it.  We used the Temas text, but I found that I had to adapt.  So, my lesson plans are now based almost entirely on authentic materials that I have found and curated.  I have created vocab lists around these materials and the activities that will go with them!  There are times during the lesson plans where I offer a suggestion from something that is found in the Temas textbook, but these lessons can be used fully without those suggestions.

Along with the honor of teaching our most advanced Spanish students comes the burden of heavy correcting and tons of planning.  We also have other preps.  Having an entire year’s worth of curriculum, lesson plans, projects and assessments ready to go will save you an incredible amount of time and relieve some of the pressure that we face as teachers. 

In my classes, we also review grammar and use the Avance text as a guide.  I include a study guide and a grammar quiz in each unit, but the practice activities (if you want to review grammar in class) are not included.

Required Materials:

-Access to the Internet and Google Docs/Slides/Forms

-Access to AP Classroom® via College Board  (free to all AP ®Teachers)

Referenced ancillary materials (though not necessary)

-Temas textbook

-Avance Grammar textbook

-A test prep workbook (several are suggested in the plans, though not needed)

Here is some feedback about my unit plans!

Extremely satisfied

Thank you so much for creating these! They are so helpful to have in class. My students were very engaged.

Extremely satisfied

Amazing resource! I have already purchased Unit 2 and 3!

Extremely satisfied

Extremely well planned unit. Everything you need is included here. I teach 3 different levels of Spanish and it is hard for me to revamp lesson plans. We use the textbook TEMAS at my school site but the readings can be very dry. I like how this unit incorporates soooo many resources that are authentic. 

I am definitely going to purchase more units. I wish there was a discounted bundle with all units because I would buy it!

Why should you trust me??

I have been teaching AP Spanish Language and Culture® since 2014 and have 24 years of teaching experience.  As I am still a classroom teacher, my activities and ideas evolve each year.  My students have done overwhelmingly well on the AP® exam over the years and almost all have earned the scores needed to get college credit, with many receiving 4’s and 5’s. I am successfully teaching this course in conjunction with the University of CT as another way for students to earn college credit. My former students report taking Spanish classes at the college/university level and having a high level of success!  

Consider asking your district to buy this product for you!   

**Please be sure to buy additional licenses if more than one teacher plans to use this resource.**

Who can use this product?

  • AP Spanish Language and Culture® Teachers

Spanish Video Project Tourism Ad for a Spanish-Speaking Country

By Specialty Spanish

This FUN and motivating project will get your Spanish students doing some presentational speaking for a real-world purpose! Students research the tourist attractions of a Spanish-speaking country and create an ad. The purpose of the ad is to attract more tourists, but the purpose of the project is for students to learn about the wonderful places in the Spanish-speaking world and to encourage them to put these places on their "must see" list! All parts of this activity are customizable to make them just right for your students.

In this mini-project, students will choose a Spanish-speaking country. They will research the "Can't Miss" tourist destinations of the country in-depth. Next they will find images of the places and important information about the places and use them to create an advertisement. Student have many options for how they would like to put their TV ad together, including Google Slides, Screencastify and others. The goal is to make an ad that the target audience can't resist! This country is the NEXT place they plan to go on vacation!

One thing I've struggled with in the past is students not using class work time well. To solve this, I created a timeline that explains what should be accomplished during each work period. It has been very successful in terms of students being on task during class work time, and has reduced the amount of "last minute" project completion that often results in low quality work. The timeline is now included with this project!

Depending on your class size and other factors, students can share their work in 3 ways:

-instead of recording their audio into their commercial, they can present live!

-they can record their audio, and the teacher can play each one for the class

-*This is what I usually do! I ask students to set up their computers on their desks, open to their presentation. Students switch seats and watch a number of ads that their classmates created. It ads more student choice and more engagement!

This resource is INCLUDED in the complete lesson plans for AP Spanish® Unit 5 linked below!!

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 this project in parts for in-class or for homework
  • Use this project as a presentational speaking grade
  • Give students the opportunity to use their Spanish to create a quality real-world product!
  • Allow students to show their ads in class. Watch as the audience is awed and captivated by the interesting, beautiful and wonderful places that they can travel to comfortably as Spanish-speakers!
  • Involve the class in the presentations by having them vote on different categories, like: Most convincing ad, Country with the Most Natural Beauty, Most Fun Country, Most Adventurous Vacation, Most Different from the US, etc.
  • Use the information students learn for a cultural comparison
  • Works well with Unit 5 AP® curriculum about factors that influence our quality of life!

What’s included in this product?

  • 2-page Google Doc with student instructions and a step-by-step outline of the process in Spanish
  • A sign-up sheet for students to choose their country
  • A rubric in Spanish
  • A timeline of what to accomplish during each work session to keep students productive and accountable
  • Comment sheets for classmates to use when watching others' presentations
  • All parts of this project can be edited and customized to fit each class's needs

AP Spanish Lesson Plans Unit 6 Global Challenges Complete Unit Plans No Book!

By Specialty Spanish

Ready to start AP® Spanish Unit 6: Environmental, Political and Social Challenges? (Los retos ambientales, políticos y sociales) Your entire unit’s lesson plans are done!  These digital AND printable lesson plans have nearly every activity you will need linked in.  Reading, Writing, Listening, Speaking, Activities that combine 2 skills, Homework, Assessments, AP® Exam Style activities and even Projects are all included!  The 2 main focuses are on climate change and immigration.  You will find vocabulary, grammar, relevant videos and articles, a debate project, Edpuzzles and more in this bundle. This is the last unit in the AP® Classroom curriculum. (In my Units 1-4 plans, all of the parts of the AP® Exam have been introduced with direct instruction.) 

Best of all, these lesson plans do NOT require that you have a particular textbook!  Everything you need is provided!

Teaching a new course, or even trying to revamp a course you’ve taught for a while is extremely time consuming.  These complete unit lesson plans will take you through the entire 6th unit for Global Challenges  starting with a “Hook Activity” using provocative images to spark interest and thought, and then the essential questions, vocabulary list and grammar study guide that you will need to get started. There are activities related to Climate Change and Immigration.  Every activity (over 58!) you need (with the exception of 2) is linked in.  Your prep will be limited to reviewing the lesson plans and sources ahead of your students, but the searching for appropriate authentic materials and creating accompanying activities is already done for you!  Download the Learning Objectives and Activity Count here!

I am fortunate to have several textbook resources including Temas, AP Spanish Preparing for the Language and Culture Examination and Avance.   In these lesson plans I make use of these textbooks for 2 out of 58+ activities. (They are grammar practices, but I provide the study guide and quiz, so you can easily make or find practices to go with these!)  However, especially after teaching on-line for a year, I have moved away from relying on textbooks and I create most of the activities myself. This makes these lesson plans very versatile and usable for anyone!  For teachers who need or like to teach digitally, all of the activities in this bundle can be assigned via Google Classroom or other learning management system. And almost every activity is also printable for teachers and students who prefer paper copies.  Best of all, once you have these activities in your Google Drive, you can edit and adapt anything to suit your needs!

I have been teaching AP Spanish Language and Culture® since 2014 and have 24 years of teaching experience.  My students have done overwhelmingly well on the AP exam over the years and almost all have earned the scores needed to get college credit, with many receiving 4’s and 5’s. 

I start the year with a set of lesson plans designed to last one week.  It is linked below.  We do all the paper-passing, signing up for different apps and classrooms, and become comfortable with the course and our classmates.  We also present our summer homework, also linked below.  Next I teach Unit 1: Families in Different Societies. This unit (Unit 6) starts as if all of the beginning of the year “housekeeping” has been done already and logically follows units 1, 2, 3 and 4 and 5 where I present all the different tasks of the AP Spanish Exam.   The previous unit plans are also linked below.  AP® teachers are allowed to teach the units in any order they would like, but I recommend that if you plan to use this series of lesson plans, that you go in order. I choose to introduce the AP test open-ended tasks over time so that students are not overwhelmed.  By unit 3, they will have learned the purpose, rules and resources for all of the tasks and can spend the last 3 units practicing them some more. This last unit is designed to fit into the often chaotic end of the school year with its many interruptions.  

There is a place within the lesson plans where I encourage a break from the unit to review for the AP® Exam. I have a schedule for review that I use with my students which I will link below.  If you are using this unit at a different point in the year, you can go through the unit without pause!

Consider asking your district to buy this product for you!   

**Please be sure to buy additional licenses if more than one teacher plans to use this resource.**
