This Cinco de Mayo Art Lesson set has 4 projects plus a game so it may be successfully used with all of your elementary students Kindergarten -5th grade. This product contains 4 Cinco de Mayo art projects with project samples and step-by-step instructions with photos plus so much more. These lessons are loosely based on the artwork of Jasper Johns. Also included is information on Cinco de Mayo, Hispanic Heritage Month, and artist Jasper Johns (1 page each).

I love these mixed media projects because any student can be successful - there is no "right way" to complete the mixed media projects. These lessons encourage student creativity, allow students to make choices in their artwork, and include connections to other disciplines (math, social studies, and literacy). A resource page is included with math and literacy connections.

The lesson is in a PDF file. It includes:

• 4 projects with step-by-step instructions, project samples, and photos
• Fact sheet for Cinco de Mayo
• Fact sheet for Hispanic Heritage Month
• Information about Jasper Johns
• Cross-curricular and literacy connections
• Dice game to play to create the project to increase student engagement

With multiple Cinco de Mayo projects, your lesson can easily be differentiated for students. Choose a project for students, let them choose, or let them create their own projects after seeing these examples.

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.

Tired of the same French Christmas Projects and looking for something a little more inclusive? Most of your students are probably already pretty familiar with how we celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, New Years, and Valentine's Day in the United States.

This flexible project is a great way to expose your students to a wide variety of cultural traditions and practices in a short amount of time with minimal effort on your part!

Each student will pick a francophone country from a set of preprinted cards, select 2 winter holidays to research, and create a slide presentation to teach the rest of the class what they have learned. Optional graphic organizers are perfect for diverse learners and guided notes keep students engaged and learning during presentations!

Includes:

-Notes to teacher with pacing suggestions

-Detailed Project Directions and Easy grading rubric

-29 Francophone Country cards

-Graphic Organizer

-Presentation Notes

-Materials available in English and French to make this work for all levels!

Perfect for giving yourself a break before Winter Break by letting your students teach each other! This is also a great project for those long, slow winter days that tend to drag in January and February.

Do your students need some teamwork practice? There is an Group Version of this project! Are you looking for both options? These projects are also sold together as the Francophone Country Winter Holiday Project Bundle.
