Spanish II 10-10-06
- Warm-up: Review of “to be in a place” and “To go to a place” / “To be going to do something”. Practiced the forms of the verbs along with overheads of towns saying where we were/where we were going/what we were going to do there.
- Took test on the vocabulary from page 42 + the verbs “Estar” and “Ir”
- Reviewed the new vocabulary on pages 46 & 47 while doing the listening exercises on those same pages.
- Reviewed how to do “Fan Folds” for drilling new vocabulary.
- Fold the paper in a “paper fan” to create 6-8 columns. Write the word you want to learn in Spanish, while paying close attention that you are spelling it correctly. Sound out the word as you are writing it, trying to match the syllable you are writing with its correct pronunciation in Spanish.
- Write between 5 – 7 (No more than 7) words in the first column. Make the word important to your eye by being sure to leave lots of “white space” around each word.
- In the next column, write the meaning of the word in English directly across from it’s Spanish equivalent.
- Fold back your first column of Spanish words, leaving just the English meanings.
- In the next column, try to write the Spanish words – but if you’re not sure, DO check back to be sure you are writing them correctly. Each time you write the word in Spanish, say it aloud as you write it. Pay attention to how it sounds, what it feels like to write it, and what it looks like.
- Now fold back the English clues, and leaving just the Spanish column.
- Write the English for the Spanish, but still pronouncing just the Spanish.
- Continue in this manner, until you can quickly and ACCURATELY produce the target words in Spanish.
