  2. Unit summary • The Spanish Club at Saguaro wants to plan a summer trip to a Spanish-speaking city. They must convince their principal that the trip would be educational. Students will be grouped together and each student will have a specific role (Financial Advisor, Resource Guide, Travel Agent, Graphic Designer). Students will create a travel itinerary that will include information regarding transportation, lodging, day trips/excursions, restaurant menus, and communication cards to use and demonstrate what they have learned and how it will help them when they travel. to their chosen city.

  3. Curriculum-framing questions • ESSENTIAL QUESTION • Why is knowledge of a foreign language valuable? • Unit questions • How diverse is the Spanish-speaking world? • How does learning Spanish help me understand the culture and way of life in Spanish-speaking countries? • How are English and Spanish languages similar? • How do the Spanish-speaking countries and United States differ? How are they similar? • Content questions • What is the difference between the two past tenses in Spanish? • How are gestures in Spanish-speaking countries meanings different from ours? • Why are accents and gender important in Spanish? • What are some historical landmarks and famous people from the Spanish-speaking world?

  4. Vamos a viajar project This project will help my students develop 21st century skills by: • Demonstrating ability to work effectively with diverse teams • Assuming shared responsibility for collaborative work • Using digital technology, communication tools and/or networks appropriately to access, manage, integrate, evaluate, and create information. • Demonstrating integrity and ethical behavior • Acting responsibly with the interests of the larger community in mind

  5. Gauging Student needs assessment CLICK HERE! Purpose of the Assessment: • To gather information about what students already know and how they would use what they have learned in a Spanish-speaking city. What I want to learn from my students? • I want to find out what they already know about the Unit Questions and what they know about a city, it’s culture, it’s language and people. How I have tried to promote higher-order thinking? • I ask students to demonstrate what they learn in class, out in the community and daily life. • I ask students to compare and contrast our languages. How the assessment information helps me and my students plan for upcoming activities in the unit? • If students have misconceptions about how to use an expression or word, I can provide checklists. If students have different levels of understanding about the grammar and importance of vocabulary, I can provide various resources. We will revisit these assessments as students gain knowledge. .

  6. My goals for the course • Find ways to get my students more interested and excited about learning Spanish. • Incorporate different types of technology my students and I can use in preparing projects. • Gain a better understanding of the many different Spanish-speaking cities.

  7. Goals for my students • To gain a better understanding of Spanish. • To demonstrate to them the advantages and applications of the language in our daily lives. • To become motivated and independent learners. • To enjoy learning a language and experience it’s benefits.

  8. FEEDBACK… • How can we motivate students who don’t want to learn and seem to just be going through the motions? • With so much technological opportunities available, is it ok to focus on a few and let students explore on their own? • Are my questions strong, clear and concise?
