Test review/practice:
1. I showed the blog entry I made yesterday for practice with the 1B (page 25) vocabulary and preterite/imperfect websites.
2. I distributed a study guide for the 1B test - also on the blog entry mentioned above.
3. A study/practice packet (to complete tonight)to help prepare for tomorrow's test.

Vocabulary practice in context:
1. Fairy Tales using the book 1001 cosas que buscar en el país de las hadas. Using the document camera students took turns finding the hidden elements within the illustrations, with much help from the whole class.

2. More Fairy Tale vocabulary practice - flashcards of drawings and words of common fairy tale elements.

3. Writing our own fairy tales: Working in groups of 3's, each team got an envelope of the fairy tale flashcard pictures, a glue stick, a large piece of paper and markers. Students were to select 10 items from the set of 24 story elements,and decide how to weave them into their own fairy tale. Then they pasted them on their paper in the order they would appear, and wrote their stories below. Most groups will need a little bit of time tomorrow to finish up.
