SYNOPSIS: In this lesson, students play a game, participate in communicative activities, and research recipes to explore the role of consumers in supporting climate change resilience in the oceans.

SCIENTIST NOTES: Many people use fish as their primary source of protein. But climate change is hurting fish populations and the people who need them. This lesson has passed our scientific review process.

Muchas personas utilizan el pescado como fuente principal de proteínas. Pero el cambio climático está perjudicando a las poblaciones de peces y a las personas que los necesitan. Esta lección ha pasado nuestro proceso de revisión científica.

POSITIVES:
-Students participate in a variety of communicative activities and are exposed to authentic resources from Spain and Latin America.
-The post-game reflection allows students to make personal connections to the ideas in this lesson and reflect on cultural and social justice themes.
-The recipe competition is motivating and allows for student voice and choice.
-Since most activities are completed independently, this lesson can be used for substitute plans.

ADDITIONAL PREREQUISITES:
-This is lesson 3 of 3 in our Cambio Climático y la Pesca unit.
-This lesson can be used as a standalone lesson or added to units on food, shopping, the environment, global challenges, science, technology, or contemporary life.
-Students with intermediate-low proficiency will be able to successfully navigate the activities in this lesson.
-Students should have a general familiarity with vocabulary and concepts related to climate change and fishing.

DIFFERENTIATION:
-As an alternative to the video in the Investigate section, teachers can print out MarViva's Guía de Trazabilidad and place the pages around the room. Students can walk around the room and take notes on the recommendations in the guide.
-The teacher can project the game board and students can play the game as a class instead of in pairs or small groups.
-Students can create personalized lists of vocabulary with expressions from this lesson to practice on a platform like Quizlet.
-Students can create a local guide in Spanish about where to buy sustainable seafood or write an article in Spanish for the school newspaper.
-Advanced classes can begin the lesson by analyzing Pablo Neruda’s poem “Oda al Caldillo de Congrio” instead of describing the photos.
-After completing this lesson, AP Spanish Language and Culture students can record a two-minute cultural comparison using one of these prompts:
-¿Cómo ha afectado el cambio climático la vida de las personas en tu comunidad? ¿Qué hacen para expresar solidaridad los miembros de tu comunidad?
-¿Qué hábitos o actividades se consideran una expresión de los valores en tu comunidad? ¿Qué opinión tienen las personas en tu comunidad con respecto a los avances en la ciencia y la tecnología?
-¿Qué papel juegan las tradiciones de la comida en las familias de tu comunidad? ¿Qué importancia tiene el trabajo en el bienestar de las familias en tu comunidad?
-As a culminating activity for this three-lesson unit, the class can watch this Youth for Sea music video and then create their own version of the video or create graphics to go with the song.
-The class can come up with their own criteria, based on the lesson, for the competition “La Gran Receta de los Océanos.”

In this lesson, students play a game, participate in communicative activities, and research recipes to explore the role of consumers in supporting climate change resilience in the oceans.

Step 1 - Inquire: Students describe photos and talk about cultural traditions related to eating fish and seafood.

Step 2 - Investigate: Students play an interactive board game to explore the challenges of buying and selling sustainable, climate-resilient fish.

Step 3 - Inspire: Students research and present recipes for a class competition, “La Gran Receta de los Océanos.”

The attached PDF file contains the same activity differentiated for 2 types of content.1. The first page deals with the Present Simple and the second one deals with the Present Progresive. 2. The students can complete this activity in many different ways. They can work individually or in groups and then can complete the activity in writitng or simply by replying the instructors questions.  

In this activity, students are going to practice asking for the cost of something and practice purchasing items. Students are also going to be exposed to the concept of bartering and how to do it with a vendor.

This OER Lesson plan was created by Anita Saalfeld and reviewed by Chrystal Liu as part of the 2023 World Language OER Summer work and training. Educators worked with NDE staff to create OER Learning Plans and materials. The attached Lesson Plan is designed for 9 - 12 World Language teachers for students at Novice Mid to Intermediate Mid proficiency level in Spanish. Students will listen to a presentation on huipiles, answer questions embedded in the presentation, and then use what they learned to create their own weaving project. This Lesson Plan addresses the following NDE World Language Standard(s): NE WL 1.2, NE WL 2.1, NE WL 3.1, and NE WL 4.2.It is expected that this lesson plan will take students 1-3 days to complete.

Students in my Spanish 2 class learn banking terms. However, for many students, it helps to strengthen working knowledge of banking before transferring the terms to our target language.  This project aims to strengthen both background knowledge and Spanish vocabulary, so that students will engage more fully and learn the content with depth. For the project, divide students into 3 groups: Bank, Checking vs. Savings, and Loans. If class sizes are large, you can have multiple groups research the same topic. Each group will become the experts on their specific topic and will share a Spanish presentation to the other groups.  Each group only watches the English version of one video on one topic, but is expected to have a basic understanding of all three topics in Spanish by the end of the project. To check this understanding, all students will need to complete a quiz in Spanish based on all three presentations.

Español sencillo: Elementary Spanish IThis is a full "textbook" for Introductory Spanish I (101), which constitutes an entire semester of college-level Spanish. The course could be used in a high school setting, though more materials/activites would likely be needed to fill out the additional class time. This work, especially the first few chapters, builds upon the OER Hola a Todos: Elementary Spanish I, by Elizabeth Combier and Mariana Stone. Their work is hosted by Galileo Open Learning Materials. This work was funded by a 2019 Open Education Resource Grant from the University of Pittsburgh. 

The intention of this book is to expand literacy skills of Spanish speaking students from their dominant English environment into Spanish.

This is a tiered interpretive listening activity. It aligns to an intermediate-level unit about family. All students watch the same video and answer the same questions, with three levels of support for students at different proficiency levels.

This activity allows novice level students to capture family member vocabulary while listening to a song. Attached lyrics can be used as a clos activity. This aligns with novice low to mid interpretive listening proficiency goals.

This activity aligns to a unit about families. Students read several infographics about Mexican families and record information on a handout. This activity is designed to be open-ended in order to accommodate students of various proficiency levels.

This is a novice level activity. Students listen to an authentic song in Spanish and identify familiar vocabulary of family members. The link is to a YouTube video and the document is a cloz version of the lyrics.

This interpretive listening task aligns with a novice-level unit about families. This task is tiered by complexity of product (how students show what they know). Level A is given the most support, while level C is given the least support. An answer key is provided.
