Watch the video without subtitles and encourage students to guess the lyrics based on the visuals and tone of the song. Afterward, replay the video with captions enabled to reveal the actual lyrics, sparking discussions about cultural expressions, language diversity, and the importance of preserving indigenous traditions. Assign small groups to research the Inuit culture, focusing on their traditions, history, or current efforts to preserve their language and way of life. Each group can creatively present their findings, such as a skit or a short essay. After watching the video, have students create a short storyboard using a resource such as Story Maps, reviewed here or a drawing inspired by the visuals they saw. Ask them to interpret what story the video is telling and how the imagery connects to the song's mood and themes.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Crash Course Biologia offers engaging, bite-sized video lessons that dive into the fascinating world of biology (in Spanish!). Covering topics like genetics, ecology, and evolutionary processes, the videos explain complex concepts in an easy-to-understand way. Ideal for students, the series provides animated and dynamic content to explore how life functions, evolves and interacts with the environment. Perfect for Spanish speakers, multilingual students, or cross-curricular ties with biology and world language classes. Be aware - some of the videos include short advertisements before they begin. As these videos are hosted on YouTube, if your school does not allow YouTube, this site would not work well for you.

Assign research projects where students expand on a Crash Course episode, presenting findings with additional information. After watching a lesson on a specific topic (e.g., genetics), enhance learning by having students create concept maps using Circlyapp, reviewed here to visualize relationships between ideas. Have students watch a Crash Course video and write a reflection or summary of key points. Follow this with a class discussion to reinforce understanding.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
