¨How are you today?¨ - ¨Fine/happy/sad/angry, etc., thank you, and you?¨
60 min class:
-Reinforcement. 10 min.
Drill and questions using the new and old material from Main activity.
-Wrap-up game. Finish class and have fun! This is a great time to review any
and all materials from any part of the year as well as to continue to reinforce
newly learned materials.
Warm-up questions- At the end of the year, students should be able to ask
and answer the following questions:
-How are you today?
-What is your name?
-How old are you?
Introduction to new theme- It is best not to give the students the Spanish
translations, but to teach new material always through demonstration and drill.
For example, begin asking them questions using the new vocabulary. Make
this part as visual as possible by drawing everything possible on the board.
Label all of the words possible, even if they can´t all read. The majority will
try and at five years old they are just starting to learn to read in school. Use
flashcards as much as possible with immediate repetition from students. This
is at least a fifty-fifty use of time, where the students voices should be heard at
least fifty percent of the time and they should independently recognize and say
the words as well.
Main activity- The main activity can include any number of stories, songs or
worksheets (one worksheet per week at the most). In every class new
vocabulary or activities should be introduced and practiced in the group.
-Sheets: Sheets are to be given out once per week, no more than four per
month.
-Songs: Song vocabulary should be pre-taught before even starting to listen to
the song. Songs should be studied for at least two weeks per song.
-Stories: Story vocabulary should be pre-taught and directly incorporate the
vocabulary and themes of the unit. Stories should be taught throughout classes
for at least two weeks to reinforce all vocabulary and expressions.
-Group activities: Activities will include card games, group projects, and pair
work. Group activities will be found in a box under the shelves.
-Movies: Movies are limited to one per trimester and should be focused on
throughout at least two classes, but only for up to 20 minutes of class time.
Movies will be described in each section of the program binder and are to be
used only when specified and outlined in the program. No videos are to be
used that are not found in the program. In showing a movie, all vocabulary
will be pre-taught and video stopped frequently for vocabulary recognition and
review.
Reinforcement- This is a good time to review the work just completed, new
vocabulary, as well as to review past materials if possible. This is when
students should ask and answer questions, recognize words and repeat/recite
vocabulary.
-This is also a great time for music.
Wrap-up game- (and attention-getters) Time to play! Kids should leave class
excited and energetic.
Use the vocabulary to play games which include:
-Bingo
-Hangman (always review the alphabet first and write it on the board for
reference)
-Tic-Tac-Toe with vocabulary
-Simon Says
-Draw a person/animal/robot, etc. on the board in a group. Each student is
called up one by one to add to the figure. Teacher says: ¨Draw a head (nose,
eye, etc.)¨
-Fetch. Flashcards are placed around the room with tape and teacher calls out
to each student one object that they must run and fetch with a time limit.
-Dance stop. ¨Las estatuas¨ Music is put on and students dance. When music
is stopped (at any point during the song) students must all freeze.

Emotions: 15 min.
With drawings, flashcards or faces, introduce the following emotions:

emotions by calling out an emotion and having the students
make the appropriate face.
Numbers: 10 min.

Many of the students will already be able to count to ten. Start counting
off, showing the flashcards at the same time. Start out counting as a
group and then try to have them count off one by one.
Colors: 10 min.
Start with the color flashcards (you can also point to the student’s
clothing or objects around the classroom). There should be ten colors in
total. Go through all of them having the students repeat. You can drill
them individually after introducing them or as a group depending on
how well they already know the numbers.
Hour 2
Warm-up: 10 min.
Review the question from the day before by asking the question:
¨What is your name?¨- ¨My name is_____¨
Wrap-up:
Color review: Go through the color flashcards. You can start by
having students repeat after you and then play a game where the first
one to say the word keeps the card. At the end, they like to count and
see who has the most cards. If there are students who don’t have a card
or fewer than the others, give them a card even if someone else has said
the word first. All students should finish with a flashcard.
Tic-tac-toe/noughts and crosses:
Put a grid of three by three up on the board and place the flashcards in
the grid. Divide students into two groups and explain to them (or don´t
explain too much as they won´t really understand) the objective is to
have each group try and make line or row of three by identifying the
vocabulary. In Spanish it´s called ¨tres en raya¨.

be using it throughout the year.

get them recognizing the letters and using them out of order. They will need
prompting form the teacher.
As the students make mistakes, the teacher draws a person up on the board,
making it as funny as possible. This will be a great way later on in the year to
have them spelling as well as to introduce other themes such as the body,
clothing, etc.
