Title: Spanish Hearts - in Time for Valentine's Day
Body:
From http://palmyraspanish1.blogspot.com/
If you're already thinking about what do in the Spanish class para el día de San Valentín, Teaching Spanish w/Comprehensible Input brings us a good project to incorporate a difficult grammar point, the subjunctive, into a cultural lesson. The lesson starts with a song to provide models of the use of the subjunctive with the phrase "quiero que tú..." and then gets students to create their own hearts using similar structures.

Title: Mystery Skype
Body:
From https://education.skype.com/mysteryskype
"Mystery Skype is an educational game, invented by teachers, played by two classrooms on Skype. The aim of the game is to guess the location of the other classroom by asking each other questions." This interactive game can be really useful at different levels to practice question construction and to encourage imagination and creativity. There are different ways to play and teachers can come up with their own rules, as long as they agree with the other class teacher. Skype offers some ideas on what to do here: https://education.skype.com/mysteryskype/how-it-works

Title: What is audioBoom?
Body:
From: https://audioboom.com/
audioBoom is an online resource with a free and premium version that allows people to create web-based audio. You can record yourself or upload an MP3 audio recording. It is set up to be like a social networking site, complete with hashtags (#) and the ability to "follow" other users. I would liken it to an audio twitter: instead of writing a 140-character tweet, you can record or post a 10-minute (free version) audio file. In the classroom, teachers and students could use audioBoom to post recordings of themselves and of others in the target language, students could keep an audio journal in the target language, students and teachers could find and post audio in the target language around a certain topic, etc. For some ideas and how-to videos on how to use audioBoom and other free and premium web-based audio platforms, check out OneStopEnglish's article entitled "Tech Tools for Teachers: Podcasting" by Nik Peachey found at: http://www.onestopenglish.com/support/tech-tools-for-teachers/podcasting/
