AP Spanish Unit 2 Identity Project Oral Presentation What's Below the Iceberg?
This AP Spanish® oral presentation project about identity is one of my very favorites! Your AP Spanish® students will love exploring their own identity and also learning about their teacher's and their classmates’ identities. Everyone will enjoy this short project! And teachers, you will love this project for 2 reasons; you will get to know your students in a new way and you can combine speaking, listening and writing in one project!
Using the metaphor of an iceberg, students will tell their class about the things that are obvious to all about their identity, and also share some things that hide below the surface.
As students present, the others take notes on what they reveal. As a follow up assignment, students (and teacher too!) write short letters to each other to acknowledge the courage it takes to speak in public, especially about the parts of yourself that may not be visible to the world. Receiving letters from their classmates and teacher is often something that students will remember forever and treasure. It's a great bonding experience for the class!
The student instructions and rubric are included, as well as some helpful tips about how teachers can make these presentations work either in person or with students online.
