Flipgrid is where social and emotional learning happens! The leading video discussion platform for millions of PreK to PhD educators, students, and families.

# data[].attributes.body
When I planned this activity, I wanted the two groups of students in NY at AU and Spain to have an opportunity to share their ideas in a low-stakes environment with support. I made sure to organize provide a simple, direct 1-sentence prompt with choices. The items provide ideas and language at the level of vocabulary and sentence starters. Google translate is provided for the use of the students' full linguistic resources and a list of adjectives is also given to help expand the level of details in the description. These supports provide both guidance and opportunity for talk. The comments help students have a purpose for both listening and responding to peers, enhancing the dialogue. What do you think?

# data[].attributes.body
I have learned that Flipgrid is a wonderful space to share. Without it, I would not have truly met and get to know my students in remote learning. I also feel that Flipgrid maximizes the talking space in class as it is not bound by time periods or physical space. It is very important to give simple and direct prompts while providing linguistic supports as a choice.

The activity encourages children to talk and understand each other better. This game also develops children's imagination and deductive reasoning in connection with foreign language acquisition. It should also be fun. Children sit in a circle and ask questions or simply
chat with a child that speaks another language. Their task is to detect the five foreign expressions,
one by one, which are used by the child instead of the normal expression in their working language. The children keep the discussion going until most of them detect all five expressions with suggestions of their meanings.

Typically, when students learn chemistry they often have a difficult time applying the knowledge to the world around them, which sometimes leads them to develop a negative mindset of "I'm not learning anything useful". Our goal is to highlight some of the things in our lives that involve chemistry, while also including some "fun facts" to spark conversation. We could use a kahoot to make a game out of it or possibly a padlet to share ideas about chemistry.

The Feminist Movement: Across Borders (Athena Miller)

The Feminist Movement is quite controversial right now in Tenerife, so why not study it? We will break down feminism in the US into four waves. For each wave, we will think about what happened, how the people involved felt, and our own feelings-- this will be demonstrated in a word cloud. After talking about the four waves, the student will be allotted 15 minutes to research the history of Feminism in Spain. The student will have prior knowledge that the expectation of the research is to create a 10 minute oral presentation and a word cloud.

1. Word Clouds work to organize ideas in a fun way. It lets the student think about new, academic terms while also getting the student familiar with English

2. In this lesson, the student will have independent time organize their ideas before sharing. This allows the student think about what they want to say and more importantly, how they will communicate that. This should alleviate some of the stress of presenting in a new language.

As we are both in a History Major, we figured that language played a huge part throughout time and it is very important to teach about this. However, we understand that not everyone finds History fascinating. To solve this issue, we decided to spark thinks up and make the experience fun through the use of Kahoot and Padlet. First the student can fill out the KWL chart we made so that we can get an idea of what they want to learn more about. When they are done with that, we made a full Kahoot for them to play and try to win!
When trying to narrow it down to a specific point in History, we felt colonialization and topics such as Columbus would be the best. Communication barriers began to form as New Lands were found and they learn different facts about Colonialization where they are from as well!
After participating in the Kahoot, we left room for the student to ask us any questions they may have that we can answer. We spent time researching this period again in order to answer the questions in which we are asked.

# data[].attributes.body
When doing research to make Kahoot questions, we used Historical Documents and used Google to research specific questions. Google brought us to journals and Historical Websites as well.

1. KWL Charts on Padlet really help organize knowledge in that it shows us directly what the students know already, what they want to learn, and what they have learned after the lesson. These help because by incorporating what they want to learn, they will stay more focused and interested in the topic at hand.
2. Kahoot is a great activity to do after the Chart is filled out. As History can be boring to some people, anything can be made fun when you add friendly competition to the mix. Students play Kahoot in order to win, not realizing they are learning knowledge at the same time.

Broken telephone has been a popular game for a very long time! Whether playing it with family or friends, it's very fun to play. This activity can be implemented in the classroom and used to teach students how linguistics truly works. Although often coming up with a comical result because it's hard to hear what the other is saying throughout the game, Broken Telephone will teach students about different pronunciations as well as different subject areas of linguistics in a subtle but effective way. The activity will keep students engaged no matter the subject focus (English, math, science, Spanish, etc.) and the topic of what message will be communicated throughout Broken Telephone can be decided based on the class subject!

1. Implementing a multilingual activity, such as Broken Telephone, into the classroom can create an understanding amongst students that different forms of pronunciation or communication are existent.

2. Implementing a multilingual activity, such as Broken Telephone, into the classroom mirrors the difficulty of somebody who doesn’t speak the language commonly spoken in the classroom and helps students to understand the challenges multilingual learners might face.

In this activity, students will look at the languages that were prominent in America throughout time. The students will do brief research into each time period in America including the colonial era, industrial age, and the modern era. Language has evolved throughout time, English has changed and the languages spoken in America have become more diverse overtime. It is the student's responsibility to do brief research on at least three different eras or times in the U.S. and they will put together a small presentation that includes the name of the era, the most common language spoken, the different languages spoken, and a little fun fact about the language used during that time, like a slang term used or something else. The activity will allow students to learn about the history of the languages they speak and hear in their everyday lives in America.

After doing some brief research myself, there are a lot of websites that go through the history of language in America. There are different websites on google that explore the evolution of English and the effects of immigration on language diversity. The students will use either PowerPoint or google slides to create their presentations.

1. PowerPoint and google slides are really easy presentation programs to use. They are easy to navigate, add pictures if needed, and it is especially easy if the students are just doing a small presentation with only a few lines of information on each slide.

2. Padlet is a good and easy way for students to organize their information and ideas. It is also a great way for students to give each other feedback on their ideas and help people expand on their ideas through that feedback.

We will be looking at different landmarks around Tenerife or other places theyve been, and picking one to look more in depth into through google earth with each of our partners. So far, with my (Dylan) partner Daniela as an example, we have created a KWL chart about the Auditorio de Tenerife. We discussed some of its uses and its unique structure and appearance and viewed it using google earth. We are aiming to learn more about the structure using our KWL charts, and by the end hope to write a google review about it to help in the aid of providing accurate descriptions using various vocabulary. Through this activity, we are exploring the students home environment, and inviting them to learn more about the history behind it, as well as other fun facts. Our group is consisted of 2 history majors and 1 environmental science major, so this activity ties those content areas together

For our project, we are using resources, such as Google Earth, maps, KWL charts, jamboard, youtube, and kahoot. With the use of google earth and maps we are able to have a visual representation and description of the landmark we are focusing on. With the KWL charts we can organize the information and see where students want to expand their knowledge. Youtube gives us an in depth experience of the landmark and helps us to learn more in auditory form. Lastly, Kahoot is fun! -Nicole, Dylan, and Angelica A

In this interactive graphic activity, students will draw a floor plan of their room and label furniture using multiple languages. Then on the side, they can give a brief description of how their room or the items make them feel and their significance.  This project can be done in a mathematics class, combining geometric shapes while also using multiple languages to give a description. In doing this students will also have the opportunity to share about something personal to them such as their environment, language, and personal space. The students will also be practicing the use of multiple languages while discovering descriptive adjectives and expanding their vocabulary.

Since Thomas and Miguel are history majors and I am a biology major, we did an interdisciplinary activity. We created a presentation that explored how New York City became what it is today through the industrial revolution and some of the environmental consequences of that. We used many pictures to express certain words and phrases so that the students can visualize what we are talking about. We were able to ask the students about some of their previous thoughts about New York and also allow them to share how it is different from where they are from. At the end, we have a kahoot that works with the English vocabulary words in Spanish as a fun way to help the student learn the vocabular in their second language.

1. Learning with the student can make the student feel much more comfortable. We played the kahoot along with the student so they did not feel so alone. Miguel speaks both English and Spanish so there was some competition for the student. Katherine does not speak Spanish at all so getting some answers wrong and learning along with the student can make them feel more comfortable
2. Using pictures is a great tool. We paired a lot of "vocabulary" words with an image of what exactly we are talking about so the student can draw conclusions and associate the word with something they can recognize rather than just translating back and forth.

We went in a traditional route and had our partners use pen and paper to draw out their rooms. They were able practice drawing specific shapes and place them in specific places. While labeling their furniture, they also get to practice writing out words in different languages and then explaining how there are special things in their rooms and how they feel about them.

Our partners will be using pen and paper for this project, as well as any language translator or dictionary tool to help them in labelling their objects in other languages.  This will not only allow them to be freely creative in their own way, but it also helps them reinforce any English or other-language vocabulary that they may not remember or have a hard time memorizing.
