Spanish II 03-19-08

Español II 03-19-08 (Sub-Mrs. Fowler & Mrs. Range – Student Teacher):

I. Warm-up: “Vocabulary list/test” – First without using any resources (book, lists, partner) to show themselves how much they now know. Once they have done as much as they could on their own, THEN they were allowed use their book and or vocabulary sheets, or flash cards. Reviewed the vocabulary with the whole class once all were done, and Homework was done being checked in homework.

II. Homework corrections

(Activity 3, page 71 – textbook & white handout 2A-B, part b)

    1. Called on students to read aloud each of the sentences in the “email” in the book. Then wrote out the questions from the email.
    2. 2A-B (b) White handout – second half of second page. Refer to page 71 in text.

III. New PACKET: Parts of the Body and Clothing

  • Pronunciation of the vocabulary with the whole class (the first page and the top of the second page –pp 229-230).
  • Assigned Exercises A & B = circulated and then went over these with the whole class.
  • Assigned Exercise C = did as in A & B.
  • Introduced the reflexive verbs (Mrs. Range) = She used the verbs in the packet vocabulary, and had students refer to page 80 in their texts. Mrs. Range used these verbs as examples and explained how reflexive verbs work.
  • Exercise D = Got them started, doing #’s 1-4 together as a class: Paid attention to: 1. word order changes from questions to answers and 2. checked to see if there are subject changes from the question to the answer.

IV. Ice Age = video. The students watched another small segment.

V. Homework: Complete Exercise D and E in the packet. Even though “E” says describe a friend “briefly”, students should include all of the same type of information about their friend as is in the example.
