7th Grade Winter PowerPoint Presentations

Are you looking for a fun way to introduce or review winter vocabulary in Spanish with your students? Look no further! Included in this PowerPoint are 30 terms represented on 32 slides (with a title page, a teacher tips page, and terms of use). The terms represented include:

• weather (snow, it's cold, snowball)
• winter activities (snowboarding, skiing, snowman)
• winter clothing (coat, scarf, mittens)
• other related terms (hot chocolate, polar bear, fireplace)

Each slide is animated so that the picture appears first, followed by the Spanish term, and finally the English term.

**Please note that the pictures are covered by white boxes that are animated to disappear when in presentation mode. When viewing the presentation in any mode other than “presentation mode”, it looks like there aren’t any pictures.**

My students really enjoy when we use this as a review with whiteboards. Make sure to check out the preview for a complete list of terms. Please note that the terms in the presentation are NOT editable, although slides may be deleted or rearranged. I have also included a blank slide at the end so that you can add your own terms and images.
