El tiempo y las estaciones

Spanish 1 students have been very busy the past couple of weeks. We have been studying the weather and the seasons, as well as learning how to talk about the activities we like to do. We have done a couple of different projects for this unit. The first was an audition tape for a job as a meteorologist in an Hispanic country. I will hopefully post the video of the finalists next week. The other project was to make a children's book about the weather and the seasons. While many students with excellent drawing skills opted to do their book by hand, a few others opted to go the digital route and made narrated pop-up books using a website called Zooburst. Here is an example (by Nacho). Read. listen, and enjoy. (Also, the books are in 3-D; click on the little back tab in the bottom center of the page to rotate the book and look around at what might be on the other side of the page.)
