Blog entry for ATLP at CNM for Spanish 1

My first class took place on Wednesday, January 4th, 2012 and it was a great beginning to the spring semester. I am student teaching with Mrs. Daizovi's 9:00 to 11:00 am class and then in Mrs. Conte's 11:00 to 12:30 class. Mrs. DaiZovi started off class by introducing me and then moving to a great exercise on the Promethean Board. The exercise involved a call and response song about "Juan."









Juan es un muchacho. Es un estudiante. Tiene una mochila. Con mucho adentro. Hace la tarea. Por la noche. Por la maƱana, y va a la escuela.

After the song we moved to an exercise that related directly to the song.  Mrs. DaiZovi then explained to me that her methodology in call and response songs focuses on a lot of repetition of a few words.  This reminds me a lot of the Pensler methodology.

In the second class with Mrs. Conte we watched a Puerto Rican film called Casi Casi and performed an exercise that related to the content of the film.
