Taking a Trip!

Let’s talk about what class actually looks like the day of the virtual trip! I often get asked how long the trips take, so here’s an overview!

1. Do your start of class routine, take attendance, etc.
2. Give link to map & let students explore. This is a must the first time your students try these!
3. Give or post handout(s) for students to complete while they explore the provided information.
4 Have a fast finisher handy just in case.

Want a few options for fast finishers? Check these out!

  • Play Geoguessr
  • If you’re completing a holiday map, consider watching an additional YouTube video on the topic. Dreaming Spanish is a great resource!
  • A game from Rockalingua
  • Choose from games at Spanish-games.net
  • Printable Color by Conjugation sheets
  • Cultural reading activities to go with the trip!

Students read, watch, and explore using the Google My Map, then record information on the graphic organizer and answer comprehension questions. This activity is great for reinforcing geography while learning about the country! It would also be a great sub plan. The example is also included in my larger bundle of Virtual Field Trips, which you can purchase here.
