Icebreaker Proyecto de Identidad / Identity Collage Project
¡Hola Profesores! Looking for a meaningful, standards-based assessment the first week of school? I like this Identity Collage Project for beginners and as a review for intermediate students (It requires pastimes & descriptions vocabulary and the verbs ser and gustar.) It also serves as an icebreaker and allows intermediate students to start the year with meaningful presentational speaking that does not require a new grammatical concept or new vocabulary. It’s low-risk speaking for them.

Icebreaker: Circle Conversation with Task Cards
¡Hola Profesores! Are you searching for a speaking activity that is also an icebreaker and review and gets students up and moving? I hope this activity using task cards saves you time while helping the students review previous content and build their interpersonal speaking skills. This activity likely takes 2-3 class periods but reviews a lot of level 1 or 1A, focusing on basic questions and appropriate answers. Prep: Print and cut out 1 set of the 32 task cards (slides 38-45) for the 2nd

Spanish Countries & Capitals TPR Activity
¡Hola Amigos! Have you been searching for a new way to teach the Spanish-speaking countries and capitals besides music and maps? Well, I have come up with an activity that incorporates movement – that elusive TPR (Total Physical Response) – that gets kids moving while learning. This is NOT a remote learning activity. Of course continue to use the songs/videos – maybe even as a warm-up to this activity – and then add in this activity that will take about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of t

Gustar structure
¡Hola Colegas! I hope I can save you time by offering this step-by-step explanation of the use of gustar with verbs and nouns. Sometimes grammar explanations are necessary because beginners likely will not figure out and use this structure by simply being exposed to it. This presentation can be remote or in-person, as a summative or formative activity. After each grammar point, there is a practice slide, followed by an answer slide. I have also added some sentence translation at the end f

Teaching style
She believes that learning a language should be fun and teaching it must be joyful, while the lessons and activities are always ACTFL standards-based.
When teaching soft skills such as leadership and character, she uses a variety of teaching strategies and resources that meet the students where they are and personalize the learning objectives. She co-taught a course called The Culture of Respect, at Drexel University, where she applied educational theories in order for students to learn difficult social emotional concepts through discussion (social constructivism) and storytelling. Her Master's thesis at UPenn was "Discourse in the Classroom." She has adapted some of these ideas for her course, "A Crisis of Leadership: Building Character & Integrity."
