Scavenger Hunt
This is to review places in the school, prepositions of location, and maybe school objects. In groups, have the students make a scavenger hunt around the school, and leave clues such as, "En la cafetería, al lado del libro" and leave items (or just notes) to follow. Once all the groups have returned, they exchange starting clues with the other groups and follow them. There can be a prize for the team that comes back with all the clues first. (They must have a time limit and strict instructions to not horse around. One idea to keep them in check is to give them a temporary hall pass with instructions to anyone to send them back to your classroom for any misbehavior.) user:angelajm00 = = =Videos=

[|Lugares en la comunidad] - Cheesy and not the best contextualization, but it might give someone ideas

[|Mi ciudad] - Narrated by a native speaker introducing learners to places in Barcelona and things one can do in each one

[|Mi ciudad] - Set to a song called "mi ciudad," but is just a slideshow of various places in Mexico City

[|Valencia] - Slideshow with no words, set to a song in English, but the visual effects of the slideshow might give students some cool ideas for making their own tour of their cities
