Los proyectos de Voki
Estudiantes,
You are going to make a Voki, which is a cartoon representation of you that allows you to record
one minute of speaking (in Spanish!) !Que chévere!
Spanish 1- your voki will be a digital representation of yourself.
Spanish 2- your voki can be whoever you want to be.
Requirements:
1. Make a Voki (instructions below) at http://www.voki.com
2. Record one minute of Spanish that contains the following grammatical and vocabulary
areas:
Spanish 1: Introduce yourself with your name, where you are from, and what you like and
don’t like to do (“me gusta _____” and “no me gusta ____”) Use the vocabulary from
Spanish 1 that we have seen so far this school year (ex. numbers, classroom, time, family,
clothing, gustarse, adjectives, nunbers). Use the verbs we have been studying as well
(ser, tener, patinar, nadar, comer, leer, escribir)!
Spanish 2: Create a person of your choosing. You can choose to be yourself, to be
someone famous or just someone different. Introduce yourself with your name and
where you are from, likes & dislikes about school/classes/job/life – use atleast two
present progressive verbs estar + iendo, ando) and one future verb (ir+a +infinitive). Use
the vocabulary from Spanish 2 that we have seen so far this school year to help you (ex.
weather, transportation, house, numbers, food).
All students: The challenge will be to fit all the Spanish requirements into your oneminute of speaking. For that reason, you’ll write a script that you will turn-in to me, but
the script will allow you to ensure all grammar and vocabulary areas are represented.
Plus, it’s easier to record your voice while reading from a script than from just thinking
about what to say.
Your project will be evaluated by a rubric that you will receive in class, but the general
areas to think about are the following:
Script:
Grammar areas covered?
Vocabulary areas covered?
No mistakes in grammar and/or spelling and conventions?
Voki:
Have I created the appropriate Voki?
Your voice is audible and easy to understand? (Don’t talk too fast!)
Good Spanish pronunciation?
Now, the one area of confusion will most-likely be “how can I get all of the grammar and
vocabulary (and for Spanish 2 the advanced verb forms) into only one minute of
speaking?” The answer is spending time in planning what you’ll say. For example Spanish
2, if you say what you will do in the future, you have just used ir+a+infinitive! 
Here’s our project schedule:
