LESSON PLAN SEQUENCE & PACING (How
will I organize this lesson? How much time will
each part of the lesson take?)
1. I described in Spanish what we would
be studying and learning that day
using gestures. I asked students
what they liked and disliked to assess
and to get personal interest. I also
shared things that I liked and disliked
to model the language.
2. As a large group, we went over how
to use gustar in first and third
person. I asked for student input
here to obtain suggestions and also
to see how much they knew or could
recall.
3. I asked students to work in groups
and write sentences on their own.
They then read their own sentences
to table groups.
4. Students traded papers and had to
read a partners likes or dislikes to
the group in third person.
5. Introduced activity. Had example on
worksheet and also went over one
example with the class before asking
them to complete it. Students could
individually work on iPads to research
a famous person they admired and
find five things that person likes or
dislikes.
