Flip Your Language Classroom the Right Way | Language News - 4 views

      I couldn't agree with this more.  Watching a grammar video would be so boring for my students.  I like to be present when explaining grammar concepts so I can answer their questions.

      I never thought about it this way before but I can see how technology in a flipped classroom can provide immediate and accurate feedback to students.

      Instead of constantly reinventing the wheel, I love to see what other World Language teachers are doing in their classrooms. This article has some good activities that can easily be converted to any language.

      I really like this VoiceThread "did u know?" about cows.  Any topic can be used to encourage students to present information about the photos.

Infografías en castellano - Infografías interesantes en español (Alfredo Vela) - 6 views

    • Anne Dixon
       
      I love using infographics, especially with beginning levels of language learners. There are so many visual aids to help increase comprehension that most students feel a sense of accomplishment when reading the infographics.  This site has a ton of them in  Spanish.  #carltech17GroupA

Creating more interpretive listening exercises - Maris Hawkins - 6 views

  •  I think it is important to give students specific tasks while they are working on a listening activity.  
  •  I know that my kids love watching movies, and this is a topic that they can relate to.
