Lesson 12 - Horario (Schedule)
Vocabulary
Language Focus: Days of the week
Classroom activities: Each day in class ask the students what day it is and write it on the board.
Grammar
Language Focus: Present tense -er verbs
Classroom activities:
1) Charades - Print out the -er verbs cards, ideally on card stock and cut them out. Mix up the cards and have one student draw a card. The student acts out the verb while the others guess what it is. You could do this activity as a whole class or make multiple sets of cards and have them do it in small groups (4 students?).
2) Conjugate verbs - Use the Subject Pronoun Cards from lesson 3 (pull out the English subject pronouns and use only the Spanish ones) and the -er verbs cards. Have students draw a verb card and a subject pronoun and conjugate the verb. If they get it correct, they get a point.
