Hey everyone,
This is my plan for English Days this week, in order. This is my first year
with these kiddos; I have three classes two Spanish 1 (majority freshman) and
one Spanish 2 (majority sophomores). OWL was present last year, but not fully
implemented the whole year w/all levels. Kids were excited their previous
teacher and I teach the same way!
Buy in is great far & they're a great group of kids. Spanish only is difficult
for them, but I use a language use system worth 5 pts a day; a ticket a week
and self assmnt at end of the wk to hold them accountable and reflective.
Does anyone have an indicator test for MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES AND/OR LEARNING
STYLES
P.S. Tess, can you send me the levels of teaching and learning for Spanish 2,
please?

Hi JoAnna-
Lisa and I do 2-3 days. For us it includes
* a survey / debrief / discussion of the first week(s)
* brainstorm norms for the class and establish as a group
* Syllabus
* ACTFL PPT (attached the one we use)
* OWL PPT / discussion (haven't finished our new one)
* Comprehension exercises: we read an article in portuguese and talk about
how they could still understand parts of it, they read an article in English
with 2/3 of the words blacked out and we talk about how they can still
understand it. Point is they DON'T need to understand everything that is going
on...
* TED Talk(s): How we learn, Think twice &Speak Once, and Speak from Day One
* Goal Setting
Hope that helps. :) Tess
