An Adventure through Spain

I'm so excited to show my students this video. It will definitely be a new way for them learn a little about the culture of Spain. They love technology so it will be great to bring into the classroom.

Questions for Will Richardson

I teach elementary Spanish in grades 1-5. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on how to incorporate more technology into my Spanish class. I don’t have my own classroom but there is a Smartboard in all the rooms and about 3 classroom computers in each class. We do not have a computer lab in my school. There is a COW but only enough computers for about half the class. Which would be the best tool to introduce to elementary students in a world language class? Each class is 30 minutes long and I see each class twice a week. So there are time restraints within my schedule. Hopefully it would be possible to introduce a new technology tool to them and then have them apply it to a topic we are learning in Spanish or possibly do some kind of cultural project.
