Make learning about Spanish 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.

Interactive and Fun!

Gamifying your Spanish class can bring numerous benefits and enhance the learning experience for students. Here are some reasons why you should consider gamifying your Spanish class:

1. Increased Engagement: Games are inherently engaging and can capture students' attention. Gamifying your Spanish class makes learning more enjoyable and encourages active participation.

2. Motivation: Games provide a sense of achievement and progress. Students are motivated to earn points, badges, or rewards, which can drive them to learn and improve their Spanish skills.

3. Interactive Learning: Gamification promotes interactive learning through challenges, quizzes, and interactive exercises. This hands-on approach helps students actively practice and apply their language skills.

4. Competition: Healthy competition can inspire students to excel. Leaderboards and challenges encourage students to strive for better performance, fostering a sense of achievement.

• Students will practice many Spanish One Concepts like: Greetings, Present Tense, Present Tense Stem changers, ser and estar, questions, nationalities, introductions to spanish class, adjectives, cultural units, saber vs. conocer, and much more! The excitement and engagement of games often lead to better information retention and recall, which is crucial for language learning.

• Students type in the password to play.

These games are perfect for sub-plans, reviews before a test, lesson-fillers, exit slips, homework, independent practice, warm-up!

Ready to start AP® Spanish Unit 5: The Factors That Influence Quality of Life? (Los factores que influyen en la calidad de vida ) 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! A bigger emphasis is placed on practicing parts of the AP® Exam, because if you are going in order, Unit 5 falls during the time of year when the AP® exam is getting close.  Students will practice writing an A®P Exam Email Reply, they will practice the Cultural Comparison and the Simulated Conversation and practice the reading and listening multiple choice style questions.  This is the fifth 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 5th unit for The Factors That Influence Quality of Life  starting with a “Hook Activity” about what is REALLY important in life to spark interest and then the essential questions, vocabulary list and grammar study guide you will need to get started. There are activities related to Education, Work and Leisure Time.  Every activity (over 75!) you need (with the exception of 4) 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 75+ activities.  But in the few cases that I’ve used these resources in the lesson plans, I have included links to alternatives.  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 5) starts as if all of the beginning of the year “housekeeping” has been done already and logically follows units 1, 2, 3 and 4 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, though it is not a necessity if you have your own way of preparing students for the AP® Exam. 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. 

Need an example before you buy? I don't blame you! Feel free to email me or visit my website's free resource library. (links below) I have a FREE Unit 3 Day 1 lesson plan for the Influences of Beauty and Aesthetics. It will give you a sense of how I organize my daily lesson plans and the quality of my work.

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.**

Ready to start AP Spanish® Unit 4: The Influence of Science and Technology?  No time to find all the authentic materials your students need?  Your Unit 4 Lesson Plans (Las influencias de la ciencia y la tecnología ) 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! Students will practice writing an AP® Exam Argumentative Essay and practice the reading and listening multiple choice style questions.  This is the fourth unit in the AP Classroom curriculum. (In my Units 1-3 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 4th unit for The Influences of Science and Technology starting with a “Hook Activity” about scientific advances to spark interest and then the essential questions, vocabulary list and grammar study guide you will need to get started. There are activities related to genetic modification, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data and more!  These are CURRENT topics that our students are interested in RIGHT NOW!  Every activity (over 58!) you need (with the exception of 3) 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 3 out of 58+ activities.  But in the few cases that I’ve used these resources in the lesson plans, I have included links to alternatives.  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 4) starts as if all of the beginning of the year “housekeeping” has been done already and logically follows units 1, 2 and 3 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, though it is not a necessity if you have your own way of preparing students for the AP® Exam..  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. 

Need an example before you buy?  I don't blame you!  Feel free to email me or visit my website's free resource library. (links below)  I have a FREE Unit 3 Day 1 lesson plan for the Influences of Beauty and Aesthetics.  It will give you a sense of how I organize my daily lesson plans and the quality of my work.

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.
