I have been using games such as quizlet, gimkit and blooket to help students with their spelling and writing in Spanish.

# data[].attributes.body
When beginning a new topic, I printed out the key words and definitions out and laminated them (if possible). I handed these out to the students randomly. Their task was to then work together and match up the terms and definitions. We them stuck them to the whiteboard using magnets, and then decided collectively if they were correct, and workshop to find the correct answers. We would then following it up by writing these in, and/or doing a kahoot quiz.

I have one dedicated science literacy lesson per week, where I find a website or article for the whole class to go through. I have 3 or 4 questions I introduce first to see if they can answer them, then we, as a class skim read the reading, with me guiding them through how to do this (spotting bold, key words, titles etc), I give them highlighters or coloured pens to highlight key words and phrases, using red for any word they don't understand. After the kids have gone through the reading, I ask for those 'red' words, and as a whole we go through the meaning. They then have to spot the key words that are in the questions and see if they can draw the information out. This can be levelled up or down depending on the year/ability level of your class - but I continually talk through my thought process with the class - they make their own notes.

Gathering resources and understanding them

Students are asked to do a logbook which they are gathering resources online and write out what they understood from them in bullet points. This trains their critical thinking as well as literacy skills to read and write. Not too overwhelming.

Have kids sit in a sharing circle and present their latest work to each other, the goal is to use and practice lots of art vocab as they describe what they have done. Set boundaries and make sure it is a safe space, nobody judges anyone else

# data[].attributes.body
This is a great free tool with many resources shared by teachers. There are many modes to build literacy. I quite like the one where students must unjumble the words and put them in the correct order to create a sentence in the target language. I usually do this exercise after explaining a grammar pill, such as word order or noun agreement

Mindmaps, KWLH tables, T-charts etc.

I've found students enjoy filling in a table and it helps them to draw out more than just the surface-level facts in a text.

Firstly, I ask sts to identify the type of text we are reading (email, advertisement, article, story, etc) to connect on prior knowledge about what to expect in each type of text. Then we have a look at the tile, subtitles, any pictures, or captions and make predictions about what the text could be about. Then, sts scan the text to get the general idea, we discuss what they understood a the main idea. Next time, sts read the text in a more detailed way and complete th activity outlined (for eg answer questions, matching activity, multiple choice, etc)
