Lesson Topic
Grammar review & "El Perro es el mejor amigo del hombre"
Lesson Outline
We began this lesson with a 30 minute review of present and preterit tenses. I especially stressed the use of each tense, its formation and its translation. Chase formed sentences in the present tense then changed them into the preterit.
The next session lasted 90 minutes - Chase read a new story “El perro es el mejor amigo del hombre”. Chase likes dogs so she read this story to completion. She read in Spanish, translated into English, then identified key grammar points. She did very well. Chase formed a new word bank with the vocabulary from this story. She recognized verbs in each of their conjugated forms, and was able to create her own sentences. After reading part 1 she answered the multiple choice and open ended questions. Chase’s pronunciation has greatly improved, and her sentence construction is very good. She enjoys reading stories and her comprehension is at a 95% level.
