Spanish Reader's Theater--Caperucita Roja (Little Red Riding Hood)

Created by

Senora Dominguez

Reader's Theater is a great tool for building fluency in reading. As a bilingual educator I have found that Spanish reader's theater is a valuable tool to get Spanish language learners to practice their oral development. Although I have used these scripts in my First grade classroom, they would also work well for secondary Spanish classes. Little Red Riding Hood is easy to follow with its repetitive phrases and familiar storyline. This reader's theater is an excellent way for students who are

Nationalism Project: Create your own country.

Created by

Mrs J West

I use this project for my Nationalism unit. In the unit the students learn about the unification of Italy and Germany. As they create their country and write their nations history, they are instructed to follow the same basic historical foundation as either Italy or Germany. If your students don't learn the specifics of these two countries, it's okay! It can be edited and they can creatively write their nation's history however you'd like. These are the directions to the project: "Nationalism i

One of my favorite and most worthwhile activities! Wonderful document for recording family facts and memories. This is a culture assignment that will be treasured for who knows how long. I hand out as extra credit, but I strongly encourage their use... where else will this information ever be captured? Students just ask questions of parents and grandparents. Even better, have them video the conversation. See my other "no fluff" products at Foundations First!!! Communication, parent, support,

By printing out the sheets on different colors of paper, you gain the view of perspective (areas in the foreground are darker, areas in the background are lighter).
