Scattegories is a fun and challenging board game that tests your creativity and quick thinking. I have recreated a classroom version for SPANISH LEARNERS called: ¡PÁREME LA MANO! also called in other countries, TUTTI FRUTI o PARA EL FUEGO. This is a fun game we used to play in school growing up in South America. I have tried in my own classroom and kids LOVE IT! This is such a great game to practice vocabulary and parts of the speech.

This product contains two versions of this game. One for individual play and one for a group game. There are a set of rules for both games but these are just suggested rules as you can set your own depending of the group of kids you teach. Kids will only need a dice, a white board marker and a wiper.

Days of The Week Word Search Puzzle Worksheet in Spanish Language

You will get a pdf file that contains the word search and the solution

Thanks a lot.

Get your students out of their seats to ask and answer questions using the present tense focusing on the stem-changing and irregular yo forms. This is a great community building or social emotional activity for your Spanish classroom. The questions center around a school theme which would be a good activity for chapter 1A of Realidades/Auténtico or it could be a good review of stem-changing verbs in a conversational format.

1. Set a timer for the activity depending on how long you would like them to practice.
2. Give one card to each student asking and answering the questions on their cards.
3. After each student of the pair asks and answers the questions, the students switch cards and give each other a high five. The high five adds community-building to this activity.
4. With his/her new card, s/he raises his/her hand to find a new partner to repeat the process.
5. Teacher should circulate while the students are talking to encourage them to speak only Spanish.
6. After the time is up, collect the cards and then discuss the questions/answers and any difficulties they had while answering the questions.

This could also be used as a Gallery Walk. Hang the questions around the room or hallway and give the students the included handout with the numbers. They write down the answer to the corresponding question. For example, if the student is at question #5, she/he finds #5 on her/his sheet and writes the answer to the question.

This is a fun review game to play with your Spanish students. I designed this game using formal commands. This game can be played in centers, or you can print enough for the whole class to play in groups. The game includes:

• 48 cards
• two options for the game board
• an answer key.

Directions:

1. Determine who will play first.
2. The first player draws a card and must conjugate the verb in parentheses. If the conjugation is correct, the player spins and moves the indicated number of spaces. If it is incorrect, the player does not move.
3. The next player draws a card, and play continues.
4. If the player lands on “pierda su turno”, they lose their next turn.
5. If the player lands on “turno extra”, they get an extra turn.
6. Play continues until the first player reaches “el fin”.

Whether you teach Spanish, French, German, or Mandarin Chinese, this is the perfect lesson to get your students thinking about the purpose of studying foreign languages!

This product features an engaging "Language Talk" activity that will have your new students thinking, writing, speaking, and moving on the very first day of school. In this activity, they must choose between 6 different quotes about the purpose of learning languages and articulate why the quote aligns with their perspective. I use this lesson every year to set the tone for what I expect in class - it is a great way to gain insight about their current attitudes towards speaking another language while they get to know one another with a higher level thinking activity as opposed to the same-old, same-old icebreaker.

Product includes:

• Comprehensive Lesson Plan
• "Language" Sheet for students to fill out
• 6 Corresponding "Language Quote" signs to hang up around your room

Though I utilize this product on the first day of school, it really can be used all year long. I hope that it is as successful in your class as it is in mine!
