Activity Overview
Spanish Vocabulary is necessary for students to memorize so that they can begin to use these new words in a dialogue. Whether, it is Los pasa tiempos, ¿Adónde vas a ir de vacaciones?, or ¿Qué haces en tu casa?, with Storyboard That, students can aid their learning in a variety of ways. Using our storyboard cells, students or teachers can create visual flashcards that have a picture of the word and its name in Spanish. Another great idea is to create scenes and have students find and circle the item like a scavenger hunt! Or, students can create a storyboard that uses the word in the dialogue, for practice. The options are endless!
For this example, the teacher has created a template that students will fill out using the vocabulary from the word bank for household items.
