We began our project from a couple of different ideas thrown around a whiteboard table. Out of all the ideas we came to the conclusion of having a "treasure map" type of activity. Because we thought it would give the students a rather fun activity while gaining better knowledge of the spanish vocabulary. Except for the treasure map is actually a map of different stores in a spanish speaking country.

So with this idea; we then created a listening activity of 6 videos that you have to translate. But theres a twist, in order to access the video you have to first answer a spanish question on the back of the ipod; and then use the answer as a password to access the ipod. We also made our speaking activity because we thought it would be more interesting than a Voki. Lastly we made a writing assignment that is very painless because who likes writing assignments? :)

We used Youtube.com and michaela's laptop webcam to make our videos. Here are the videos in the order they will occur in the project.

Listening Activity: Instructions- Follow the instructions in the videos, The videos will tell you what to do in order. And lastly follow the map :)
