2. Enfoque: Conversación con compañero (Hablar y Escuchar)
Decide who is partner A or B. Take turns asking and responding to these questions:
A: ¿Cuáles materiales tienes en tu mochila? ¿Qué tienes en tu armario?
B: Respond using Spanish vocabulary of what you actually have in these locations.
B: ¿Qué tipo de materiales necesitas para hacer un proyecto?
A: Respond using Spanish vocabulary of what you would really need.
A: ¿Qué haces tú para sacar buenas notas?
B: Respond using Spanish vocabulary relating to what YOU really do. 
B: ¿Prefieres dar un discurso o escribir un informe? ¿Por qué?
A: Respond with the option you really would prefer and give a reason why.
Consider a speed dating or concentric circle format for this. You can try setting up the chairs into groups of 8 chairs so that they are able to rotate partners. Instead of A and B, you would call them rounds or questions. You can maybe print out a half sheet for them.  Add the question ¿Cuál es una regla en tu clase de español?

3. Guantanamera
Did you know "The Star Spangled Banner" was originally a poem written by Francis Scott Key? Many patriotic songs have roots in poetry...like Guantanamera which was inspired by the poem we just read and memorized! 
Read Fondo Cultural: Cuba (un voluntario)

4. Poetry Recital Opportunity
Finish collaborating with your team to recite the poem. Remember, you can use hand gestures, actions, or song to interpret this poem (also aides in memorizing it)!

5. Quizlet Live Game
IMPORTANTE: Estudiantes, please note that playing Quizlet Live in class is different than actually signing up for my Quizlet class. 
You are expected to join my class, create a username and do independent practice at home! I expect you ALL to be signed up at this point. I'll be going over how I expect you to use Quizlet and what I can see when you practice. PLEASE USE THIS RESOURCE! I guarantee the extra practice will pay off on your quizzes and exams.

6. Vocab Check Sheets in Guided Practice workbook pages 23 to 26
Now that you've had a few days of input (listening to the vocab in use) and identifying, try to see what you're able to recall and spell. If you are absolutely at a loss, you may use pages or 40 to help you spell the word correctly. Give this your best shot and evaluate how much studying, repetition and memorization you will need to do to get this vocab down.
