Spotify Wrapped-style learning: Free template + class activities


Spotify Wrapped-inspired “Recap” template FAQ

Why should I use a template?

These files LOOK like Spotify Wrapped (and give a similar feel) … but you don’t actually need the Spotify app to use them. They’re in an app / site that students do have access to and can use (Slides / PowerPoint / Canva). 

Wait … isn’t Spotify Wrapped about music? I don’t teach about music.

Yes, Spotify Wrapped is about the music your students listen to. But it’s a way of summarizing and analyzing that can be applied to virtually ANYTHING. (More below.)

How do I give them to my students? 

Just use the buttons below to download or make a copy of the file. You can edit it and adjust it however you’d like. Then, attach it to an assignment in your learning management system (Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, etc.). Make that attachment “Make a copy for each student” (or some variation of that) so each student gets their own personal copy. 

What will my students put in these templates?

There’s a whole section on ways to use them below. (Just keep scrolling and reading.) 👍

Can I change the text?

es! All of the text on all of these slides is editable.

What about those black and white squares … do we put pictures in those?

Yes! If you use those slides, your students can add images to the slides — and then just resize the images to go on top of those squares. (The squares are just placeholders that suggest where your students might put images. More on this below.)

Do we have to use all of those slides?

No. You can delete any of the slides that aren’t needed by your students. In fact, you can also duplicate any of the slides and use them for multiple purposes.

How much do these templates cost? 

They’re FREE. In fact, there are lots of other templates just like these in our Ditch That Textbook templates library. (And yes, they’re all free, too.)
