I love using cognates to help empower my older newcomers to access high-level vocab! (They are all Spanish-speakers right now) Explicit teaching of the patterns also increases their metalinguistic awareness! #ELLs #ELLchat

This year, I began doing personal interviews with my students. Personal interviews (sometimes called "persona especial"), were developed by Bryce Hedstrom, a master teacher from Colorado who has many years of experience teaching with storytelling and comprehensible input. Bryce offers many resources on his website, www.brycehedstrom.com, for teachers who are interested in using personal interviews in class. When I began doing personal interviews, I adapted Bryce's free posters (which were designed for middle and high school students) to make them more colorful and accessible to younger students. Bryce has given me his permission to share these posters on TPT. This bundle includes: - Personal interview posters for elementary students. - Direct, clickable links to resources on Bryce Hedstrom's website for teachers who are interested in learning more about this activity. Personal interviews have deepened my rapport with my students and have allowed me to get to know each child much better than I ever have before. I highly recommend using personal interviews in class.

So guys...if you have followed me for any amount of time on my blog or on my facebook page...you can probably tell...I love me some GAMES!!!!! I am all about high engagement and students learning Spanish without "realizing" they are learning Spanish. I am not going to lie...my kiddos love my class. They talk about how it goes fast, they feel confident in what they learn, and its the "least" dreadful of school. As much as I wish I could say it's just me as a teacher (shoulder dusting at the moment)...I don't this it is. It's because my kids have a ball in here. I am ALL about games & competing BUT learning Spanish at the same time! My units are chunked full of games and they aren't just your good ol' educational game but actual game the kids play in real life but just modified with Spanish. So, has anyone heard of the Spoons Game? Whew! It's a fun one...highly energetic, active, and super competitive. Here is a little clip of the ACTUAL spoons game being played (not the Spanish class kind): Well, I brought the Spoons game into Spanish class and it was SOOOOO easy! So let's review the Spoons Game Basics: 1. You need at least 4 to 6 people to play to make it fun. 2. The whole goal is that you're going after a spoon & there will ALWAYS be one less spoon than people sitting at the table. Womp Womp...someone ain't getting a spoon! 3. You are trying to get a matching set of cards that allows you to be the first to grab the spoon. Now in regular playing cards, you're going after 4 of a kind (3 of hearts or Ace of Spades, whatever) BUT in Spanish...you're going after 5 of a whole conjugation of a verb. So if you want to be the first to grab a spoon, you're deck must look like this: Notice the kid above is holding "Escribo, Escribes, Escribe, Escribimos, and Escriben" (He didnt' have them "in order" but who cares...) This is the precious match that allows you to grab that first spoon which spins everyone else in a whirlwind grabbing a spoon. It's not over though: The kid that was the first to grab the spoon MUST lay down his cards and show his conjugations AND (here is where it gets interesting)...he must tell the English of EVERY card....yep, that's right. If he/she can't, they have to take their precious spoon and hand it over to the person who DIDN'T get a spoon! Know those verb conjugations kiddos! So how do I play this in my class. Well, lots of ways. If I see a whole table is finished and we have 10 minutes left. I'll say "Go grab a spoons baggie" Or...some days (such as a Friday after a quiz) we'll dedicate the rest of class to Spoons Game Class Wide. I have 4 different games: Present Tense Regular, Present Tense Irregulars, Preterite Tense, and Preterite Tense Irregulars. If I am dedicating the whole rest of the class, I will divide the class into stations: Present over here, Present Irregulars over here, etc. They'll play for about 10 minutes and then switch to a new deck allowing them to focus on a TON of conjugations. What if I want to assess my kids after we play to make sure they know it? Great question! With every game I have produced, I have created a written translation practice. See below for a little peek: My kiddos always complete this after playing their game. If we are in stations, they will complete before moving on. I have also given them these written translations the following day as well for a bell ringer or exit slip. No matter how you plan the Spoons Game in your lesson, it will always be highly effective and yes, they will KEEP asking to play! Let me know if you have any questions & God Bless, Brittany B. See below for my products of the Spoons Game if interested. Every game comes with directions, playing cards, verbs list, and post-written activities of verbs used in game. Present Tense Conjugation Spoons Game Present IRREGULARS Conjugations Spoons Game Preterit Tense Conjugations Spoons Game Preterite IRREGULARS Conjugation Spoons Game MEGA BUNDLE MIX OF ALL SPOONS GAMES Thanks again & God Bless!!!

ETHICS IN THE MELTING-POT Jack Mahoney & Elizabeth Vallance Professor Jack Mahoney is Director of the King's College Business Ethics Research Centre, University of London, and Elizabeth Vallance is Visiting Professor in Politics at Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London. AT lHE START of this century Israel Zangwill wrote of 'the great Melting- Pot where all the races of Europe are melting and reforming'. He was, of course, writing about the USA and had the American immigration experience in mind; but today one need not cross the Atlantic to see Europe as a melting-pot and its members in a state of profound flux and mutation. In Western Europe, what began in mid-century as a largely Franco- German attempt to prevent a recurrence of European war, by identifying and creating a common industrial policy in coal and steel, evolved by degrees into an industrial alliance of western European nations and the creation of a Single European Market. Originally six, then ten, and currently twelve, the number of member states of the European Economic Community, more recently the European Community, is still on the increase, as new countries apply to join and others consider a future approach.
