I love the podcast Radio Ambulante! If you haven't listened to it yet, I highly recommend you check it out - it is excellent story telling from all over the Spanish speaking world!
I have used it in the past in my AP classes (here and here) and there are lots of ways to use this in class. For instance, Bethanie Drew's Listening Guide and lots from Barbara Davis.
But for my listening guide, which students will do over their February vacation (they need to be listening and reading over that break!), they will listen and read this episode: Éxodo. The episode is about Venezuelan and it is heartbreaking and informative. As students listen, they will fill in the blanks (keeps them reading and listening), answer questions (personal and comprehension), illustrate, translate, and reflect.
If you want to use the guide, click here.
Here are the AP Themes and Subthemes this episodes touches upon:
AP Temas: Los desafíos mundiales, La vida contemporánea, Las identidades personales y públicas, Las familias y las comunidades
AP Subtemas: Los temas económicos, La población y la demografía, Los estilos de vida,La enajenación y la asimilación, La estructura de la familia, La ciudadanía global, La geografía humana
Also, Martina Bex's readings about Venezuela would be an excellent thing to do before this podcast.
Hi Kara! I was wondering if you distribute packets like this electronically, or a hard copy? If electronically, how do they illustrate? Thanks!ResponderEliminar
Hello! I give them a hard copy.Eliminar
But if it were electronically, maybe they could just do that on paper or insert images?
