Digital Escape games - French bundle #1

By Frenchified

Make learning about French culture and history interesting with this no-prep digital escape game bundle.  The games include access to a website where your students will hunt for the keys to unlock a set of locks.  Students will need to read the clues very carefully and watch videos, visit websites, and read texts to find the information they need to win the game.  Very easy to use - just send your students to the website and let them work!  Students can play individually or in teams.

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:

  • Access to a website where your students can play the game
  • Complete teacher's guide to playing the game
  • Answer key so you can help students if they get stuck!

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! 

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.

Spanish Writing Prompts Bundle with Peer Edits & Scaffolds Novice & Intermediate

By Specialty Spanish

Spanish writing prompts, especially when you make them into a group challenge, are a great way to get your Spanish 2, 3 or students writing, improving and learning from others!  

Your Spanish students will look forward to working together to create writing that meets and exceeds the standards you’re looking for!  Writing together allows peers to learn from each other and takes away some of the pressure when writing alone. The themes are relevant and interesting to students and promote creativity with language. 

All of these resources help give the teacher the resource of time!  The group challenges provide you the chance to offer specific feedback, but on just one paper per group instead of one for every student!  And peer editing is another way for students to receive feedback without the need for the teacher to correct everything. 

Growing Bundles are a great deal!  First, you get a discount over buying each resource separately.  But BEST OF ALL, each time I add a new resource, you can download it for free!  (The price for the resource will change as I add each new resource, but anyone who has already bought the resource pays the lower price, but gets to download new additions for free!)

 This bundle includes:

-A Vacation-themed (preterite and imperfect) group challenge writing prompt

-A New Year’s themed group challenge writing prompt (all tenses can be used)

-A future themed group writing challenge

-A fall themed group writing challenge (present or past)

-A winter themed group writing challenge (present or past)

-A peer editing template

-A vocab list that breaks down words that add sophistication into transition words, key words for time frame and sequencing words

-some themes are differentiated by levels

Who can use this product?

  • Spanish 2, 3 and 4 primarily, but all activities can be adapted up or down
  • Some of the writing prompts are already differentiated by proficiency level!

How can I use this product?

  • Students write together to create a high quality piece of writing
  • Students peer edit others’ work with a specific set of guidelines to ensure quality feedback
  • Students refer to a reference of sophistication words each time they write to improve their vocabulary with words that add sophistication
  • Teachers may also assign these prompts as individual work or assessments
  • Download new prompts as they are created!

What’s included in this product?

  • A Vacation-themed group challenge writing prompt
  • A New Year’s themed group challenge writing prompt
  • A future themed group writing challenge
  • A Fall themed group writing challenge (differentiated, fall vocab lists included)
  • A Winter themed group writing challenge (differentiated, winter vocab lists included)
