🍃Closing: Representing the Legacy
(Weeks 4-6)
Block I: 2 hours
Grammar Review 📘
Use character-based conversations to reinforce grammar structures.
“Never Have I Ever” Activity 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Students sit in a circle.
Each student says a sentence in English starting with:
"Never have I ever..." related to their character.
🗣️ Example: "Never have I ever… surrendered to the Spaniards" – Policarpa Salavarrieta.
If others share that trait with their character, they raise their hand and narrate the event.
Prepare a creative sentence for the next session – an epitaph.
