This skit is a project that I use along with the Avancemos 1 Spanish curriculum. It aligns with Unit 5 Lesson 2 (party and chores vocabulary, affirmative tú commands, hay que and acabar de phrases). I usually opt for flexible grouping and allot five to six 55-minute class periods for this project. Students always enjoy these skits and wow me every year with their creativity. Just remind them (if necessary) that all skit content must be school appropriate.

This is a multi-part activity that is for level 1. Students will watch a video to see basic greetings. It can be adapted for virtual or in-person, and there are opportunities to expand upon each of the activities.Learning Intentions:• I will learn about basic greetings.• I will learn about basic conversations (i.e. asking where someone is from).Success Criteria:• I can put a basic conversation with greetings in order.• I can have a basic conversation with a classmate. This includes names, how someone is, and where they are from.

The Verb "SER"How to use this activity:It is a video lesson you can show some or all.  You can add to a NEARPOD lesson or Canvas Studio and add questions or just use it as reinforcement to your lesson. It is 5 minute long and includes personal pronouns. See other “SER” activities by same author for additional activities.

Use these posters to get students speaking in Spanish from day one: Can I go...? Can I have...? In my classroom, I have these posted. After explaining the expectation and modeling how to ask/answer. When a student asks a question that is posted, I respond, "En español, por favor." And point to the poster. This is usually quite fun for them and gets that puedo conjugation in their minds right away for Can I.
These posters could also be used for teaching classroom vocabulary, o-ue stem changers and present tense conjugation, especially using o to conjugate for yo.

This is a great resource for the beginning of the year, reiterating to students how they ask to go to the bathroom. This in conjunction with the Puedo ir...etc. posters on the wall (see the OER https://www.spanish411.net/resources/Spanish-Puedo-Posters.pdf), students can be using Puedo correctly before learning about the present tense or stem-changers. Also, students are inevitably going to ask to go to the bathroom. This video helps lock in that phrase with humor, fun and repetition.
