We did CALENDAR TALK to practice and review our days of the week, months, numbers, weather, celebrations, do self check ins, talk about their daily activities and fun activities during their weekends, and most important to use and maintain the target language (Spanish) during class. This also allowed us to personalize the information and keep students engaged while immersed in the target language.
Students worked on a Hexagon project to share about their favorites. We have been practicing our basic vocabulary to build up confidence when we put this into conversational exercises during class activities.
We are starting to use our Spanish notebooks for some writing exercises. We set up our goals for the first trimester and talked about how we can keep ourselves accountable in order to achieve our goals. Students familiarized themselves with Spanish proficiency levels and how they can level up.
Finally, we set up our learning platforms that we will be using during this school year: Seesaw and google classroom.
All of the class vocabulary happens simultaneously during our lessons. Students will be acquiring the language and leveling up their language vocabulary little by little.
