Pre-Listening Activities

Before I watch videos with my students, we predict what information the video will include. To do this, you can tell students the general topic is coffee and ask questions such as ¿Tomas café? ¿Alguien de tu familia toma café? ¿Cómo es el café? (color, temperatura, sabor, etc.) ¿En qué países crece el café? 

Learn Spanish Plant Vocabulary

With my students, I usually watch videos all the way through once before doing activities. If you are assigning the video for remote learning, encourage students to watch once before trying answer the questions. Our easy Spanish conversations videos are short and comprehensible. Students will understand a lot the first time. In addition, watching the whole video provides important context that helps them understand when they watch a second time.

You can watch the video below or on YouTube: Plants in Spanish | Easy Spanish Conversations | Las plantas.

Vocabulary for the Spanish Plant Video

Many of the words will be familiar, but these words are specific Spanish plant vocabulary. You may want to do pre-viewing activities to teach these words if your students haven’t heard them before. See Listening Activities You’re Not Doing (But Should Be) for suggestions of narrow listening activities that incorporate vocabulary.

la planta – plant

el tallo – stem

la hoja – leaf

la flor – flower

la raíz – root

las semillas – seeds

la maceta – pot
