Reflexive Verbs Interactive Slides Spanish 1-3

UNIQUE

FUN

ENGAGING

Multiple ways to practice and test Reflexive verbs!!!

Need a FAST way to formatively assess your Spanish students?  This Minuto loco (Mad Minute) Spanish conjugating activity can be digital or print, but it’s a tried and true method to conjugating with speed and accuracy.  Students seem to really focus and work intently when we give them a time limit.  It reminds them of memorizing their math facts when they were in elementary school, and in a way, memorizing endings for verbs is no different!  But turning the important skill of conjugating into a short and fun game is very motivating for students.

The best thing about this resource is that it is ready to go, for any level, for any verb tense! You can use this resource over and over again in each class, and every school year!  It is so easy to tailor to your curriculum, vocabulary or grammar!  Having everything you need in one place is such a time saver, and all the irregulars of particular tenses are worked in!  Students love this, and enjoy tracking their progress over time!

Who can use this product?

• Students at any level of Spanish

How can I use this product?

• Print or digitally assign a page 
• Use as a warm up, a class activity, a homework assignment or even a quiz!
• Time students (1-2 minutes), and correct in class.  Use a copy of the same sheet for several classes to track improvement in speed and accuracy!

What’s included in this product?

• 1 page of Teacher Notes with suggestions for many ways to use this resource

• 10 different conjugating sheets that focus on the following kinds of verbs:

• Regular verbs (ar, er, ir)

• Irregular preterite verbs

• Irregular subjunctive verbs

• Reflexive Verbs

• Future and Conditional Verbs

• Present and Past Perfect Verbs

This product contains a 3-part activity to practice writing, speaking and listening for any level of Spanish!  Use these Google activities for distance learning or for students who are in person. Increase motivation and proficiency on the ACTFL scale with this digital activity!

First, students write a short story about a picture related to the unit theme.  They follow a small list of requirements that are fully customizable.  (This activity is written to ask students to use the future tense, but with a few key strokes, this activity can be changed to any tense!)

Next, students will record their story using a recording website.  My students use vocaroo.com.  They will link their recording in a chart.  (There is a sample class chart included in the instructions.)  Students will also create comprehension questions for their story and list them in their chart.

Last, students will listen to a classmate’s recording and answer the accompanying questions. They can use the included peer feedback sheet to offer constructive comments on specific elements of the recording!

I used this during 3 time periods: the writing was done in class, the recording was done for homework, and the listening was done in the next class.  Teachers with block classes could use this activity in one class.

Who can use this product?

• Students at the Novice level and up

How can I use this product?

• Use over the course of 3 learning periods or group the activities into one longer learning period
• Student choice improves motivation!
• Set students up for success for moving to the next ACTFL proficiency level with the sophistication words resource
• Customize this activity to whatever unit or grammar you’re studying and use it over and over again!
• Differentiate by providing student instructions in Spanish or English, or by changing the requirements
• Encourage class camaraderie by allowing students to participate in helping each other improve
• Ensure that all students get constructive feedback about what they’re already doing well, and what areas they should focus on improving

What’s included in this product?

• Complete teacher instructions
• Fully customizable student instructions in English
• Fully customizable student instructions in Spanish
• A linked in google doc with Spanish and English expressions for key words, sequencing words and transition words

It's Back To School Time! How can you get parents, guardians and families involved in your Spanish class?  Use these templates to communicate with parents at the beginning of the year!  These digital or printable Google Docs are just waiting for your personal touch and details!  Start the new year with high parent engagement!

The first doc is a letter for families which introduces their child’s new Spanish teacher (you!) and asks parents to tell you about their child. **Parents love to tell you about their kids and being asked let’s them know right away that you care!

The second doc is a similar letter, but tailored for the parents/guardians of AP Spanish students.

The 3rd doc is a request for guest speakers.  Why not let our families know how much their life experience is valued?  Send this letter to find out if there are any family members, friends or colleagues that use Spanish in their lives!  **This document is part of my Spanish Back to School Survival Pack for Middle and High School bundle!!**

The 4th doc is a hand-out to give parents, perhaps at Open House Night?  It lists several ways in which parents can help their child succeed in Spanish class, even if they don’t know Spanish.  It’s a great way to empower parents and to give them actionable strategies to be involved with their child’s learning on a regular basis. 

The last doc is a study guide template.  I send this via email about a week before an important assessment.  It’s a great way to keep families in the loop as we encourage them to be involved in their child’s Spanish education!

All of these documents are almost ready to send out!  You can edit and personalize all of them, and they can be printed out or emailed home.  Start your school year with strong partnerships and high parent involvement!

Who can use this product?

• Teachers of Secondary Spanish (Year 1 through AP Spanish)

How can I use this product?

• Personalize the documents to suit your needs
• Engage families by mailing, handing out at Open House night, emailing or asking students to bring documents home to families

What’s included in this product?

• 1 letter for parents/guardians of Spanish students (not in AP Level)
• 1 letter for parents/guardians of AP Spanish students
• 1 letter to request guest speakers
• 1 handout for parents listing ways they can help their children with Spanish
• 1 study guide template that can be emailed to parents/guardians
