Crossword puzzle: Student will complete a crossword puzzle that

includes the vocabulary used for the day.
PowerPoint Review: Teacher will use a PowerPoint to review the
vocabulary. There will be one vocabulary word translated to English
on each slide. The teacher will then say the word and the student will
repeat.
My Habitat Activity: Each student will choose a habitat of their liking
and then draw 10 animals that correspond with that habitat. After
drawing the habitat and the animals that belong in that habitat, they
will label each animal in Spanish.

No student is in need of any accomodations in order to keep up with the class.

However, if a student is able to finish early on their drawn habitat than he/she
will be able to move on to the closure activity with a partner.
If the student is able to complete their drawing of a habitat before class has
ended they will be able to share their drawings with another student who has
finished. With that student, they will present and practice pronouncing the
vocabulary.
An assessment has not yet been given over this vocabulary. In the future,
however, the students will be tested on their knowledge and memorization of
the vocabulary.
