How do the World Language Teachers welcome students to the new year and how do they help them make friends in class? Here are several activities that began the year:
Señora Trott asks her students to fill in information about themselves on t-shirt graphics. Students personalize them and then present them to class in Spanish.
In Señor Lawhead's Spanish 3-4 class, he asks students to interview each other in Spanish and write a short biography of their partner. Students also do their best to draw their partners to illustrate the biography.
Madame Leidhoff's French students present "C'est Moi"(It's me). They have a legend of interests. Students express what they like and don't like using the visual icons and symbols.
Dra. Jacobson has her AP classes interview and write a comparative essay about a another student they have met in class.
Señora Ranzolin also has her students interview a partner and write two paragraphs about what they learned. Then, students present their partners to the class.
