Didactic resources

• board
• markers
• pen
• notebook
• sheets of paper
• English-Spanish/Spanish-English dictionary

Session 26, Period 1

Initial Phase

Review months and dates by playing hot potato. Give a student an object that they must pass to another member of the class as long as you are knocking on the board or making any other type of sound. The student that is holding the object has to respond to your command. For example, “Tell me the name of a month” — student will have to answer “December” or “Tell me a year” — student will have to answer “2001”.

Checkpoint

Ask questions to the class to check whether they remember how to say a year or a month.

Ask students to review individually the information from session 4 and session 5.

Intermediate Phase

You may want to start out by writing your own date of birth on the board. Explain to the students that a date of birth is the day a person is born. This is used to tell how old a person is.

Teach the students to be able to say their date of birth (DOB). Ask the students orally what his date of birth is. Repeat as necessary.

Review how to write a date of birth properly. Make sure to explain the use of the dashes and slashes. Have the students write their date of birth. Give examples on the board, such as:

style="margin:1em auto 1em auto; width:75%"

style="width:33%"| 05-27-1984

May 27th, 1984

style="width:33%"| 05/27/84

Have students practice saying their date of birth by randomly asking students “What is your date of birth?” and “What is your birth date?”

CheckpointVerify that students understand the question “What is your birth date?”

Editor's note: make sure students notice and understand that month and day order in American English (MM/DD/YYYY) are switched with respect to Spanish and to British English (DD/MM/YYYY).

Wrap up

Review When – Where as Wh- questions. <div style="clear:both">

Students individuaally should complete the graphic organizers as instructed in practice 1, then share their answers with a partner. <div style="clear:both">

Ask students different questions at random and also ask for volunteers to ask questions related to the time. Verify that they are able to understand the questions and comply with the answers. 

Session 26, Period 2

Initial Phase

Ask questions about places and times. Ask students to remember the place and time where they were born. Model for the class an example: “I was born in my house in Sololá in July of 1987”.

Ask students to make two circles, one inside the other, facing each other. Each student should ask the student in front of them a question: “When were you born?” When all the students have answered the first question, the whole outside circle moves one position so that the student can ask the next question to another peer. 

[Editar]

CheckpointVerify that students are asking and responding to the questions in the “fluency circle”. 

Intermediate Phase

Refer students to Practice 2: When and where were you born?

Students get together and ask each other questions from the Practice 2. 

CheckpointStudents answer the questions using the sentences they have written. 

Wrap up

As the students: “What did you learn today?” Student should be able to ask and answer questions related to the time and place the student and others he knows was/were born.

Refer students to Practice 3. Now you do it. Ask them to do Square One using as much creativity as possible. 

Session 26, Period 3

Initial Phase

Mimics and gestures: students receive a sentence that the teacher has written. For example, “I was born in my house” or “My brothers were born in Escuintla”.

The students should mimic the sentence and the group must guess the sentence. The group gets a point for each correct guess.

CheckpointVerify that students understand how the game should be played. 

Formative assessmentBrainstorm ideas and set yourself as a model. On the board, write your name and develop the organizer.

[Editar]

Once the organizer is complete in Practice 4, write a paragraph using the information in it. For example,

My name is Patricia. I was born in Guatemala City in a hospital in zone 2. I don’t remember the name. My family was very happy but especially my two sisters, Nora and Miriam. I was born in August 1965 and my mother said that it was a beautiful sunny day.

Refer students to Practice 5. Writing Workshop.
