IB Spanish B, the five themes.
IB Spanish B is a different animal from AP. The text types matter (literary excerpts, infographics, comparative readings). The exam rewards the kid who can argue, not just translate. These resources are aligned to the five IB themes (Identidades, Experiencias, Ingenio humano, Organización social, Compartir el planeta) and to the SL and HL speaking and writing rubrics specifically.
La Nomofobia (the mini-unit on phone addiction, Theme 3) is the first one shipping. The full IB rubric pack lives in the Rubric Packs category.
La Nomofobia.
Four days of interpretive, interpersonal, and presentational work on phone addiction. Authentic Spanish text. Subjuntivo. Viral campaign assessment.
AI Ethics in Spanish.
Five days of AP-level discussion on ChatGPT, AI bias, and academic integrity. All in Spanish. AP Theme 3 follow-up.
Integrated Performance Assessment.
Six ready-to-deploy IPAs across Novice Mid through Pre-Advanced, the 5-step backwards-design protocol, the Performance-vs-Proficiency framing for parents, the heritage IPA variant, and four ACTFL-anchored rubrics.
AP / IB Listening Pack.
Six AP-style listening worksheets aligned to all six AP themes, IB Individual Oral sample-analysis templates (SL + HL), the Vandergrift-validated pre-while-post scaffold, and the honest reason most students lose Section 1 points.
IB & AP Rubric Pack.
Editable rubrics for IB Spanish B SL/HL and AP Spanish: speaking, writing, three-mode IPA. Drop into Google Classroom and grade.
Every Spanish teacher hits the morning when the kid is throwing up at 5:30am and you have not even thought about what period 1 is going to do.
A good single lesson is not a worksheet.
A mini-unit is the right unit of work for most of the year.
AP Spanish is the test that pretends to be a course.
