My Spanish Teaching Experience ♥
Hello everyone! Today's blog post is about when some Year 4 students came up from a local Primary School to learn some Spanish with us! We had been planning the lesson for an hour and 25 minutes each week for 3 weeks.
Our lesson was all about the Spanish subjects! So to start off we taught the students how to say some of the subjects in Spanish. We went through once telling them what they are and them repeating them after us. Then, we went back without showing them what it was in Spanish to see if they remembered, which they did!
We then split the group in half with 8 going outside to play a Scavenger Hunt game and the other 7 staying in the classroom playing a game of splat and a word search!
I was in charge of Splat with my friends. So basically how to play Splat is: You say the subjects in Spanish and there will be pictures of them and whoever gets the right answer will get a point! It was a 1 v 1 game so the students were in pairs and we had all their names written on a whiteboard and gave each of them a point when they got the correct answer.
We had 7 students in the classroom so we sent 3 to do the word search and the other 4 to play Splat with me. Before we started, our helper handed out name badges, so we knew the students names for the game of Splat.
Here are some photos of the children playing Splat! ♥
When the other group were done with their Scavenger Hunt, we swapped the kids around so the kids got to do the opposite activity.
For the Scavenger Hunt, we had pictures of the subjects they had learnt and put them outside of the classrooms which matched the subjects to help the students learn more about the school when they move up. We had a number and a letter on the back of the pictures and it spelt out a word on the worksheet we had given them.
When they had both done the opposite activity, we invited them all back in the classroom to announce the winners of Splat. We gave the top 3 students an award and we also gave each student a certificate for completing the lesson.
Here is a picture of our certificates! ♥
We gave each of the students an evaluation sheet to fill out for what they learnt in the lesson, what they enjoyed about the lesson, what they want to learn next and what they rate us in faces, good, alright and bad.
Finally, we played a game of "Hide The Fox" to tie up the lesson! Hide The Fox is where someone would go outside of the classroom with one of us "teachers" and someone inside the classroom would hide the fox in a hidden place. When the person outside comes back into the classroom, we would say a subject in Spanish and the closer to the fox, the louder we get and the further away from the fox, the quitter we get. I think we played about 4 rounds of this game and then it was time for the students to head back to their school! :(
Wed let them take their certificate and their word search home with them to show their parents and we collected in the evaluation sheets. As a team we looked through all of the sheets and every student gave us a smiley face!
Overall, we were very pleased with our lesson and were happy that the students enjoyed it too! Here is a photo of us all looking very happy about the lesson! ♥
I hope you enjoyed this blog post! I really loved teaching the younger kids about Spanish as it is one of my favourite lessons and they all learnt something new! The lesson lasted 45 minutes and it all went according to plan which is always a good thing!
Leave a comment suggesting what you want to see next on this blog! I am planning on doing an "After School Routine" as someone wanted me to do. I hope you liked this post and I will see you next time! Bye <3
