Coloring is the best thing ever. High school students like to pretend they are too cool for coloring activities, but that is a straight-up lie.   Middle school students love coloring as well, but will also pretend they are "too old for coloring". (lolz) When I talk about coloring activities in the high school and middle school Spanish classroom, I don't mean coloring pictures of Dora and staying in the lines.  I mean activities with colored pencils (or markers or crayons) that support that day's objective for the Spanish lesson.  Or honestly a lesson in any subject....
