    About the Pathways Project

    Please Note: Many of the activities on the Pathways Project OER Repository were created by upper-division students at Boise State University and serve as a foundation that our community of practice can build upon and refine. While they are polished, we welcome and encourage collaboration from language instructors to help modify grammar, syntax, and content where needed. Kindly contact amberhoye@boisestate.edu with any suggestions and we will update the content in a timely manner.  — The Pathways Project

    About the Boise State World Languages Resource Center (WLRC) Language Activity Repository

    The activities provided by the Boise State World Languages Resource Center (WLRC) serve as foundational activities which can be adapted by any language and scaled up or down on the proficiency scale. Many of these activities offer an English Version that is “language-agnostic” to provide language instructors from around the country a platform to remix these instructional materials, infusing them with their target language and culture! The activities within the Pathways Project OER Repository seek to help students solidify their interpersonal speaking and interpretive skills through task-based situations or communicative activities. These activities should be facilitated in the target language for approximately 90% (or more), per the recommendation of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.

    How to use the WLRC Repository’s Activities:

    Warm-up

    Start introducing the can-do statements to the lab and then introduce yourself to the students. After, have the students introduce themselves to the rest of the group.
    Ejm:

    • “Me llamo Alex, estudio ciencia política, soy de Idaho y me encanta bailar”

    After the students are done introducing themselves. The students will use the questions on the Powerpoint to talk with their partners for 5 minutes in breakout rooms. Once done, tell them to go back to the main session.

    •     Ahora van hablar en parejas por 5 minutos sobre las preguntas de la presentación. Una vez que terminen vuelvan a la sesión principal y esperen por instrucciones.

    Main Activity

    Students are going to work in partners for the main activity. (Have the students go back to their break out room)
    Tell your students:
    “Hagan preguntas abiertas sobre los temas de las tarjetas. "
    EXAMPLE:

    • Pregunta sobre la tecnología: ¿Prefieres Android o Apple?
    • Respuesta: Tengo un teléfono Apple y me gusta mucho porque es fácil de utilizar, pero el precio es muy caro
    • Pregunta sobre la familia: ¿Quién es tu miembro de familia favorito?
    • Respuesta: No tengo un miembro de familia favorito, pero me encanta salir a comer con mi hermana porque ella siempre paga la comida.

    Once the student answers, they sign that square. Then the other person can ask a question.

    Students should try to get a BLACKOUT or BINGO (by asking their partner
    questions about pictures in a row) 

    EXAMPLE: Foto de Juguetes -
    ¿Tienes un juguete favorito de tu niñez?
    ¿Cuál era y por qué?
