How to Use Pre-Made Quizlet Sets & Edit for Your Class



Lesson planning takes up a lot of time, but there’s a time-saving tip I’m surprised more teachers don’t know about!

Using already created Quizlet sets on Quizlet, and tweaking them for your curriculum’s specific vocabulary!

Below I’ll show you the 6 steps to finding a set on Quizlet, and editing it to fit your needs!



1) First, go to Quizlet.com and create a teacher profile if you don’t already have one. It should be free, but it may prompt you (annoyingly) to sign up for the paid account! A few years back, I did use the paid version for 1 school year, and while it had its benefits, it just wasn’t high on my list of priorities with my budget.


2) Once you’ve created an account, in the top search bar click where it says “Search for flashcards”


3) You can type anything in there! I’m keeping it simple, and just typing in “Spanish colors” in my screenshots below. Press enter & a bunch of results will pop up. You can filter by All Results, Study Sets, Textbooks, Questions, Users, and Classes. Usually, All Results or Study Sets show the most relevant terms. You can click any of the sets that seem to be closest to what you want.
a) I clicked the middle option, with 14 terms. If I like every term that is included, I can click the “Add to Class or Folder” button. You can organize Classes or Folders however makes sense to you!

 

4) It has a few terms I don’t care to use, Silver & Gold, as seen in the screenshot.


a) To edit a few of these terms, I’m going to click “Save & Edit” as seen here:


5) It will use all of these terms, & take you to a page where you can “Create a New Study Set”. Here you can change the Title, Description, & Edit the terms and/or images with each term. 
a) If I don’t want the picture (right now it’s just showing a red square), I can click the little trash can, to delete.
b) If I want to change the image, I have to delete it, then it will be empty and I can click where it says “Image” to select a new one.



i) Here’s what it looks like when I select a new image.





c) To add a term between terms, click the + button: d) To delete a term, click on the term, click the trash can at the top, and “delete this card".
6) Once you’re done editing the terms & images you want, be sure to click Create, and you’re done! It’s as quick & simple as that!





I hope this step-by-step tutorial has been helpful to you, and will save you time in the future!

No-Prep Emergency Spanish Sub Plans

Image
  2 Minute Read No-Prep Spanish Sub Plans that work for Middle and High School Spanish are super important when you have to call in sick the night or morning before school! What’s tricky about being a Spanish teacher, is that it’s pretty rare that fellow coworkers or substitutes can teach Spanish while we’re gone. Therefore, over the years, I’ve needed to have a few sets of emergency sub plans ready to go at a moment’s notice → and that means something digital! Whether you call them webquests or virtual field trips, the idea is the same –students will discover information in an interactive way with embedded links that take them to websites with reliable information. Have you ever spent a bunch of time leaving detailed sub plans with copies to print, and the sub doesn’t actually read your directions? 🤦‍♀️ I’ve been there! It’s super frustrating, and ends up feeling like your time was wasted, especially when you should’ve been resting up or taking care of your kids, instead of wri...

Spanish Classroom Speaking, Listening & Writing Activities - Find Someone Who!

Image
Spanish Classroom Speaking, Listening & Writing Activities - Find Someone Who! One of my favorite activities to do in Spanish class that gets students out of their seats and conversing with their classmates, is a good ol’ Find Someone Who activity. After talking with fellow colleagues about what this looks like in their classes, (even math teachers have done this activity!) I realized there’s many different variations of what this can look like depending on the subject, time of year, and grade level. The most common time of year my colleagues were saying they use these activities is at the start of the school year , as an ice breaker activity. That’s definitely a great time to do an activity like this!  However, I’ve used this activity not just as a simple icebreaker activity, but with proper scaffolding & extension activities, it’s a great way to incorporate all 4 modes of communication!  Here’s my general multi-day lesson plan when it comes to using a Find Someone ...

What does my Alebrije Look Like? - Alebrijes Project for Spanish Class

  What does my Alebrije Look Like? - Alebrijes Project for Spanish Class This alebrijes project is such a fun way to wrap up Día de los Muertos lessons, or after watching the movie Coco in Spanish class. My students love being creative, and getting to hang their projects in the classroom or hallways - something they don’t get to do often being in high school! This project works for all levels: Spanish 1, 2, 3 and beyond! How this project works: Students will take the 10 question “ questionnaire ” which is similar to old-school magazine quizzes, or like those modern day Buzzfeed-type quizzes. It asks them about their personality characteristics, when their birthday month is, and some of their “favorites” relating to vocab often covered by November 1st, in Spanish 1.  Once they answer all 10 questions, they will use the “answer key” to find out what their alebrije consists of (colors, design, and which body parts are made up of which kind of animals). The list of animals consist...
