Arianna Uberti is a Venezuelan artist and illustrator (follow her on Instagram here), who leveraged her experience working as an artist in residence at a Florida hotel to start her own business... making people happy through her beautiful creations.

This resource features three versions of her biography, all written in Spanish: Simplified, Standard, and Complex.

SIMPLIFIED: The Simplified version is a half-page biography written with high frequency words and cognates. It may be understandable to students in their second semester of Spanish 1, especially if the class uses a communicative, Comprehension-based approach with a strong focus on extensive reading and listening. *NOT shown in thumbnail

STANDARD: The Standard version is a full-page biography with many details and compound sentence structures. Although it relies heavily on high frequency words and cognates, it uses a broader vocabulary range than the Simplified version. It may be understandable to students in their second or third year of Spanish, depending on whether they have been in courses that have a strong focus on extensive reading and listening. *Shown in thumbnail

COMPLEX: The Complex version is a full-page biography with many details, a broad vocabulary range, and complex sentence structures. It may be understandable to students in their third or fourth year of Spanish, depending on whether they have been in courses that have a strong focus on extensive reading and listening. *Shown in thumbnail

Each version of the biography is also accompanied by one or two Comprehension/Processing activities, provided as full-page worksheets. The comprehension activity for the Simplified version is a half page activity below the text.

SUGGESTIONS FOR USE:

  • The whole class reads the same version as part of an art unit
  • Differentiate by distributing different versions to different students
  • Students work in pairs to read two versions and identify facts that appear in each
  • Read all three versions in sequence, layered in with communicative activities such as discussion of the biographies or viewing and discussing audio-visual content related to the artist
  • Teach the same lesson in multiple levels, modifying complexity
  • Use for sub plans or too-sick-to-teach-days in multiple levels
  • Add to class library and let students self-select which text is an appropriate challenge for themselves
  • Laminate text on one side and comprehension activities on another and use as part of a Fast Finisher System
