El párrafo de la semana - 10 week Spanish primary writing bundle set 2
This ten-week Spanish writing program will have your students writing every day. Each of the ten writing activities in this program includes five pre-writing and writing activities for Monday through Friday. These writing prompts are a great way both to introduce and to review writing. Provide each student with a “párrafo de la semana” folder and have them add to it every day as you give them daily assignments. At the end of the week have them turn in their folders. On Monday, you can start over again with a new theme.
Here are the themes included in set 2:
❶ la persona que más admiro
❷ mi cumpleaños
❸ mi comida favorita
❹ los restaurantes
❺ los deportes
❻ después de la escuela

Here’s how this writing program works:
Lunes: Dibujo - Give students a drawing page with a writing prompt at the top. This will have them beginning to think about the writing theme for the week and is their first pre-writing assignment. Kids love drawing, and the pictures they draw will later serve as inspiration!
Martes: Mi folleto de vocabulario - Each student receives a booklet to help them explore the vocabulary related to the week’s writing theme. The front page includes the writing prompt of the week and an image. The second page includes over 80 frequently used Spanish words. Page three lists 12 words that go along with the theme of the week, and the back page has space for ten words that students have either thought of on their own or looked up in the dictionary. The booklet is a simple one page printable that you can either fold in advance or have students do it on their own. Kids write their name on the front cover and you could have them color it.
Miercoles: Vocabulario - Students go back to their vocabulary booklets from Tuesday and choose ten words that they will include in their rough draft. The words they choose can be a combination of words they have chosen and themed vocabulary that was already written in the booklet. They then write down the chosen words on their vocabulary page that says ”Palabras de vocabulario útiles: Utilizaré estas palabras en mi párrafo".
Jueves: Mi borrador - Students write a rough draft of their paragraph using the vocabulary words selected on Wednesday. The borrador page includes a 5 point checklist at the top for students to evaluate their work for themselves before writing the final copy on Friday. This will motivate students to look over their work and make corrections.
Viernes: Mi borrador final - The fifth and final step in this writing program is to write the final copy. Students should feel very confident in writing about this week’s theme by now. At the top of the final copy page they’ll see the writing prompt and question words that they can ask themselves while writing: quién - qué - cuándo - dónde - por qué - cómo

French Reading, Writing, Speaking, and Listening Activity: RENCONTREZ ARIELLE
The personal description of the personnage in this activity can either be used a speaking or writing prompt. Reading and listening comprehension included.
Sometimes it’s difficult to come up with good ideas for creative story-telling or imaginative writing. Very often, we’re so focused on producing correct grammar that we forget how much fun it can be to tell stories! If you’ve been looking for creative prompts to get the ball rolling for your upper-intermediate level students, I know you’ll have fun with this resource. It includes a story to listen to and read along, then students can complete listening comprehension and 1st conditional SI CLAUSE activities.
Here’s what you need to know about ARIELLE:
elle mesure un mètre 85, blonde aux yeux bleus
elle joue au volley-ball dans l’équipe de sa ville
elle n’aime pas beaucoup les sucreries, elle suit un régime très strict
elle court tous les jours au moins 5 kms
elle veut changer de travail, elle travaille dans la publicité, elle voudrait travailler plutôt avec des enfants
sa maman est décédée il y a 2 mois

Si clause writing activity - 1st conditional - Futur simple + present tense
Story about Arielle based on her background information - Approximately 500 words

Listening comprehension cloze activity
STUDENT INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1: Read the personal details about ARIELLE, an interesting personnage.
STEP 2: Once you know ARIELLE’S background, complete the si clause prompts provided. They all begin in the futur simple, and you should finish them in the present tense. This step will help you build up to writing a story!
STEP 3: Listen to a story about ARIELLE. Don’t read the text yet. Just listen, and see how much you can understand.
STEP 4: Complete the cloze activity to test your listening comprehension before you read the actual text. Fill in 20 blanks with words you hear in the MP4 recording. A word bank is provided.
STEP 5: Check your work as you read the full text for the first time. Take some time to read the English translation provided to compare sentence structure. Be sure to note new vocabulary words and expressions.
STEP 6: It’s time to try your hand at creative writing in French! The story you listened to will give you an idea of what kind of story you can write, but be sure to use your imagination! The background information and the si clauses you wrote will give you something to work with. The more you read and write in French, the better your understanding of sentence structure will be. You’ll also be amazed at how much vocabulary you will learn! Use as many verb tenses, pronouns, and other grammatical structures as possible in your story.
