What planning looks like

My goal for 1A is novice mid, for 1B is novice high.  I will use the vocabulary we have been practicing.  In 1A, our question will be ¿Cómo está?    We'll start, though, with asking 5 people Como estas?  We'll share out after a transition activity, back in the circle, polling kids, asking how their partner is.  The second activity will be about four people.  The hook will be four photos on a slide.  I will assign a photo to each student who will have to describe their photo to another, then switch cards.  The cards will be different colors, for the four different pictures.  We'll transition this one with back to back with your partner-- you're facing your new partner.  We'll play this for a few minutes.  Transition.  New partners-- same color shoes?  

I'll solicit a new word, like bad mannered/rude, boy/girlfriend, homeless.  How do you feel when someone is rude/flirts/you see a homeless person?  Share with a new partner.  Circle up and share with whole group.

The last slide will lead to our next topic.  Pair up and list colors.  Then, as a class, we will name things that are that color in the classroom. Literacy piece: list the color names in the notebook.

If we have time, I'll debrief at the end of class.

In 1B, we will start (after the conversation) with the slides I made last week, en la consulta del médico (literacy).  Then we'll pair up and ask each other what hurts.  They will mention something, and the partner has to point to the part that hurts.  We'll count to pair, then espalda a espalda to re-pair.  Share-out with a round of simon dice or cabeza, hombros, pierna, pies.  Or a student can say what hurts and everyone has to mime it.  Transition to having pairs name all or the body parts they can (recycle).  New question: what can you do with your feet, hands?  Pairs share out after re-pairing.  Hopefully someone will share sports activities, which will be our next segway.  New question: Cuales deportes te gustan?  Generate a list of sports.

What am I waiting for?

  So, I've been doing this for a long time, but still don't feel like an expert.  What will make me an expert?  How good do I have ...
