Español II– 31 de marzo de 2008

• Introduced new lesson – 2A – Describing our “Daily Routine” and getting ready for special occasions. We read and listened to the new vocabulary in context, on pages 74 & 75.
• We reviewed these new items, and wrote down some additions, using travel sized grooming articles under the document camera. We then played a game where I showed a group of 5 articles and then under “cover” I removed one. The students then identified what was missing, “¿Qué falta?”
• We did Act. 1, page 75, as a whole class but partnered up with our “12:00 appointment partner”. One partner would “act out” the grooming activity for the odd numbered items, and the other partner did the same for the even ones.
• Act. 2, page 75: More listening comprehension = “Thumbs up/down” depending on if the statement is logical or not.
• Review of Reflexive Verbs = these were introduced on Wednesday prior to spring break. See page 80 in your textbook to see HOW they are different from regular verbs. We reviewed that these verbs indicate the person(s) doing the action is doing it FOR ONESELF / THEMSELVES. We then practiced the forms, using the verbs: BAÑARSE & PONERSE.
• “Body Parts Vocabulary” review game. Each group received an envelope with body part labels. The group selected a person to label, and then took turns identifying the meaning of each label and taping it to the groups model. I took pictures of each team & model afterwards, and invited the students to do so, too.
• Tarea: HANDOUT- 2A Verb Grid: Complete for the 18 reflexive verbs – meanings and conjugations (16 on front & 2 on the reverse). You might need to check page 96 and/or the dictionary in the back of your book for find all of the meanings.
