The last week of T1

8th grade Spanish students have begun their final unit for the first trimester. This is a 4-part story series about a boy named Gabi and his disorganization. Students have completed the next two chapters of this series. Students have discussed their own organization habits and daily routines asa result of the content in these stories. The stories this week included:
* Los padres de Gabi (Gabi's Parents)
* La cucaracha (The Cockroach)

7th grade Spanish students did their MovieTalk assessment this week based on the following short film:
* Fresh Guacamole https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNJdJIwCF_Y
* ¿Quién soy? (Who am I?) Students ended their MovieTalk unit with a Who am I? activity where they heard and read descriptions of movie stars and had to guess on teams based on their knowledge of Spanish descriptions.
Students had to demonstrate their learning of the new structures introduced during this unit. Students created their own MovieTalks entirely in Spanish and showed their stories to the class or myself.
Students learn different structures in Spanish with each video. Students are asked guiding questions both written and orally. If you are unfamiliar with how MovieTalk helps kids learn Spanish faster, I have provided a link below for more information:
