Word Search
There are so many benefits for using word searches in class. They are a low-stress way to introduce or review vocabulary. They develop word recognition and improve spelling. And they're FUN! Students love them. They enjoy the thrill of the hunt. This word search raises the thinking level by having students first define the word, then find it.
"this is a great extension vocab activity!"
Use word searches as a warm up when introducing vocabulary, for fast finishers, in stations, an after the test activity or no-prep sub plans.
Crossword Puzzle
It's always good to offer different activities for teaching the same content. Crossword puzzles are another low-stress way to exercise your brain and improve vocabulary & memory.
"perfect warm-up for after spring break."

Spring Spanish Speaking Activity
Find Someone Who Activities are my favorite way to get students out of their seats and speaking Spanish. Students try to get as many signatures as possible by asking questions about their classmate's spring plans. Fun way to practice using ir + a + infinitive & the future tense.
