Fun idea, but it just doesn't fit my personality -
I struggle with the English socializing as well in some of my 2nd year classes
- kids self-assess on the OWL speaking goals every 2-3 weeks, and it's
interesting how some of them aren't able to accurately assess how much Spanish
vs. English they are using in the classroom. They are scoring themselves at a
meets or exceeds in "Speaks Spanish" while they are side talking in English,
which is a 2.

Hi all,
So, I have an idea from Ricardo that I HAVE to share.
Every day, each class gets E S P A ? O L written on the board (adapt to your
language). When someone speaks English, a letter gets erased off the end. When
all the letters are gone, the class gets a "test." This has worked WONDERS in
all of my classes and especially in my most difficult class. Thank you,
Ricardo, for this genius idea. I highly suggest it for everyone. I started this
week and it's been the best yet!
Have a good week,
Heidi
