5 Lesson 3 Title: Cómo estás? Cómo está usted? Objective: Students will use the verb estar with adjectives in order to ask others and describe how they are feeling. Alignment: Communication: Communicate in Languages other than English Standard 1.1 Students engage in conversations, provide and obtain information, express feelings and emotions, and exchange opinions. Materials: vocabulary sentence strips (question, response format, adjectives)* large picture cues of vocabulary words (adjectives)* a class set of U1L3W1 and U1L3C1 student worksheets a class set of U1L3 formative assessment (exit slip) *You may elect to use a digital format (i.e. slideshow presentation) to display your vocabulary words and sentences visually instead of using print form. Hook Statement/Activity: Prior to the start of class, write/project the following on the board: 1. How do you feel when you receive a gift? 2. How do you feel when someone startles you? 3. How do you feel when you place third in a race? Direct your students to answer this question in/on their journals, notebooks, drill sheets, entrance tickets, etc. Be sure to have a daily drill or hook activity for students to complete independently while you complete administrative tasks (i.e. hall duty, attendance, etc.). Greet your students by saying, Hola clase! and Buenos días! or Buenas tardes! (depending on the time of day) with a clear, enthusiastic voice (do not yell); or refer to Video Reference #1. Review the drill/practice questions and transition to the introduction of new learning. CONSEJITO #1 Effective Hook Activities either: (1) reinforce yesterday s learning or (2) pose a question or statement that sparks interest and inquiry about the new topic of learning amongst students.
