Español II
El 10 de septiembre de 2010
• Repaso del alfabeto –1/2 sheet blue handout- reviewed the names of the letters and then practiced them by dictating our names to one another.
• Repaso – las vocales:
1. I taught hand signals used to reinforce the mouth shapes for each vowel.
2. We used two “authentic materials” that include all of the vowel sounds:
a. The playground teasing poem “El burro sabe más que tú”
b. The song, “La mar está serena” – substituting the vowel sounds
• Nombres en español para la clase – using my “names list” as a reference, students selected a latino name to use in class and told me what they preferred. To distinguish between those who chose duplicate names, they selected either a second name to combine with their latino first name or a Latino last name.
• Repaso de los números – pink 2-sided handout:
1. Reviewed combining #’s 16-29 into one word
2. Reviewed the 10’s (20-90)
3. Practiced the 100’s – focusing on the irregulars of: 500, 700 & 900
4. Put it all together by practiced by dictating our phone numbers in the Latin American format for phone numbers (503.431.55.63 = my classroom phone).
• Study Buddies: Students practiced spelling their classroom names and giving out their phone numbers with three students in class – ALSO, filling in the 3 black spaces on the “Bienvenidos a la clase de español” section of yesterday’s white 4-page (2-sided) handout.
• Began ENCUESTA – Using the the 5 questions quiz written as homework (in English with the answers) about the classroom expectations, students surveyed 3 other students to see how well they could answer their questions. Not all finished, so they can call their Study Buddies to complete for Monday.
• TEXTBOOK CHECKOUT: we went to the library and checked-out our text, Realidades 2.
• Tarea:
1. Complete your Encuesta – survey of 3 people based on your “5 question quiz”.
2. Cover your text for class: protect the edges, corners and spine of the book.
