Some classes work better in groups than others. With this bundle, you can customize which classes receive different versions of the same project. This also works great when you have assigned the group project but inevitably have students who are absent for an extended period. Don't stress about sending work with them. Just print out the individual project and send them on their merry way!

Have your students ever heard of Fiesta de la Candelaria, Constitution Day, Día de Las Velitas, Carnaval, or dozens of other holidays celebrated throughout the Spanish-speaking world from December through February? The Spanish-speaking Winter Holiday Project goes beyond the big name holidays your students are already familiar with. Not only does it review geography, but also incorporates history, culture, music, and more. And even better - Once you assign this project, your students will take on the work of teaching EACH OTHER!

AP Spanish® students will love this presentational speaking project for Unit 4, Science and Technology! The project contains specific directions, a rubric, teacher notes, a graphic organizer, an example presentation and a participation chart. The oral presentation is designed to be motivating, interesting and fun to students- both as presenters and as members of the audience! This project is fully customizable so that teachers can make adjustments to ensure that this project is just right for their students! It can be assigned digitally or printed.

Science has made some pretty big advances in recent times. Many people know a little something about cloned animals or genetically altered food. This project allows the members of your class to choose a current and interesting scientific advance, research it to understand both the basics and the details, to understand the benefits and drawbacks of the advance and teach the other members of their class about the topic! Included in this project are teacher notes where there are multiple suggestions for how to engage students both during their research and during their classmates' presentations. In person, we use the Smartboard to present the visuals. If you have a large class and prefer not to have all groups present live, students can record themselves presenting. Then, use one class period for students to view the presentations of others.

This project is INCLUDED in the FULL UNIT 4 Lesson plans. You can find the entire 6 week lesson plan unit linked below!

Who can use this product?

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

So the AP Spanish® Exam is over... now what?? The end of the year means that you can do FUN and CREATIVE things with students that keep them interested and motivated! This digital or printable art project is a great way to end the year and let students show off other talents! We also get the opportunity to do some cross-disciplinary work and collaborate with colleagues if you choose!

First students choose a global challenge to research- one that interests them!

Next, students imitate a style of art to create an original work of art that uses symbolism to demonstrate the theme of their artwork.

Finally, students write a detailed description of their thought process while planning their work as well as what elements of symbolism they used and why.

When the projects are turned in, the teacher can set them up (around the classroom or in another spot in your school). Their descriptions accompany their artwork. Included in this project are a gallery walk note-taking table as well as comment cards. Students enjoy getting feedback from their peers! And the gallery walk chart helps them engage with the work of their peers and to think more deeply.

Another great option is to collaborate with an art teacher or another Spanish class. You can also simply invite other classes to view your gallery, and administrators too! Let them fill out comment cards for your students!

How long will this take? It really depends! You may choose to let students do a lot of the research and planning in class, but you can also assign this for homework.

I find that the making of the art has to be done at home so that they have access to the supplies they need.

The writing of the description can be done in class or at home as well.

The gallery walk takes at least one class period. If you have multiple classes participating, you could allow more time if you choose.

Who can use this product?

• Students in Year 4 or AP® (though it can be modified for students who are not as advanced in their language yet!)

What's included in this project?

• 1 page of teacher notes to help make this project run smoothly, for other ideas and modifications
• Student instructions (in Spanish)
• Student rubric (in Spanish)
• Student planning sheet (in Spanish)
• 1 page gallery walk template with a spot for student artist names and 3 thought-provoking questions for students to consider while they view others' projects
• 1 page of comment cards (Google Doc) with 4 comment cards on 1 page (can be photocopied to make more)
• a link to a Google Slides presentation which contains the Gallery Walk template and the Comment Card template, but also 5 options for backgrounds for students to write their descriptions in, to make them look nice and professional
• All of these elements are fully customizable to ensure that each part is just right for your students!

I like to use this project with students in Spanish 2 especially those in IB.

It does not only require students to write a book, but it requires them to incorporate other cultures and of course a bit of investigation. I have great examples of how this project has turned out :)

AP Spanish® students will love this fun, real-world application mini-project! Teachers, this Google Doc project with rubric can be customized, assigned in Google classroom (or other learning platform) for distance learners and printed for in-person students. This project is perfect for Unit 5 as students explore the factors that influence our quality of life! Get students motivated to use their Spanish outside of class while they gain some sage advice from trusted adults!

In this project, students will interview 2 adults that they know. The topic of the interview will be how jobs relate to our quality of life. Students will first work in small groups to brainstorm questions, though in the end, they get to choose what they ask. They will set up interview times, and after the interviews are complete, they will draw their own conclusions about work/life balance, how our daily lives can be affected by the jobs we have, what significance one's job plays in a person's identity and sense of purpose, etc. The student instructions provide clear step-by-step procedures and a detailed rubric about how their final project will be graded.

Best of all, students will have the opportunity to interact with adults in their community and practice important life skills like formally thanking people for their time! When the interviews and article write-ups are complete, a vibrant class discussion can take place as you talk about everyone's findings, take-aways and important learning! This is a great topic for students who are thinking about their future careers and jobs!

This resource is INCLUDED in the complete lesson plans linked below!!!

How can I use this product?

• Develop skill in writing and drawing conclusions from the information they gain

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.**
