¡Buenos días!
I added a list of 8 ways you can practice español en casa over the summer!
Have fun! ¡Hasta luego!
1. Try to talk in español or espanglés with your friends or family. Try to have a short conversation all in Spanish each day, or just add as many Spanish words as you can into a conversation in English (or any other language you speak at home!).
2. Scavenger hunt: I hung up somewhere between 20-30 red hearts in the neighborhood around Runkle (mostly on Beacon, Dean Rd, and behind the school on Clinton) with words or messages in Spanish. How many can you find? You can also add your own for others to find! Here are some suggestions for things to write
3. Practice vocabulary with a game online:
Most of all, be safe, have fun, and keep an open mind to learning!

3. Practice vocabulary with a game online:
- Rockalingua username: Runkle (capital "R"), password: student (all lowercase).
- Gimkit: Final review La Ropa La comida La comunidad
- Quizlet: La Ropa La comida El tiempo
- Spanish Games Website: Choose the categories that we have learned about in Spanish class.
After choosing your category (in “Start” tab), make sure you choose to do the “FULL TUTORIAL” before playing the games. Suggested Categories: Animals,Body, Colors, Family, Food, Numbers, School, People
- Señor Wooly playlist
- Netflix or Disney Plus: There are 500+ million people who speak Spanish in the world, so most movies and lots of popular shows get translated into Spanish. Netflix and Disney Plus (and probably other platforms) have options to change the audio language or add subtitles in a different language. Try changing to Spanish for part of a movie or show! See how much you can understand! I recommend trying this with something you have already seen, it will make more sense that way.
- Exploradores de la Historia: Funny animated mini-documentaries (about 15-20 minutes each) about different ancient cultures around the world (including some from Latin America like the Inca and the Aztecs, and also other cultures like ancient India, ancient China, and the Roman empire). You can watch a trailer for free, but episodes cost $1 each, or $7 for the whole set, or $2.50 to rent the set for one day.
- Putumayo albums from around the world (youtube playlist): You can find even more on their website: www.putumayo.com/music
- Profes Playlist of Música Tranqui (Chill Music)
- Most music streaming apps like Spotify or Google Play Music have lots of options in Spanish, usually listed in the "Latin" category. Here are some genres to search for: salsa, bachata, pop, tropical, vallenato, tango. Try some different ones out to find one you like!
- Borrow an e-book or audio book in Spanish from your local library
- Try an online read-aloud with EpicBooks
- Scholastic en español (Youtube Playlist): Find lots of familiar favorites read in Spanish!
- Try a mindfulness activity with Aula de Elena from España (YouTube Playlist)
- Do some yoga with Smile and Learn Español or with Profe's playlist
- Bailar! Profe's playlist of Zumba and Just Dance videos
Most of all, be safe, have fun, and keep an open mind to learning!

Yoga: El Monstruo de Colores
In this Yoga video, we will see 5 emociones matched with colores (shown in what the teacher is wearing) and posturas de yoga. 1. Pensar: Look at the list of emotions. Picture the color and make a movement with your body to act out each emotion. Amarillo = la alegría (happiness, estoy feliz) Azul = la tristeza (sadness, estoy triste) Rojo = la rabia (anger, estoy enfadado/a) Negro = el miedo (fear, tengo miedo) Verde = la calma (calmness, estoy tranquilo/a) 2. Practicar: Watch and follow along with the yoga poses in this video. The color of the teacher's clothing will give you a clue for which emotion she is showing. Think about the emotion and act it out as you move through the poses. |
