Ms. Reeves, is mixing art with language learning.
The students are learning 4 words of spatial orientation: derecha, izquierda, adelante, atrás (right, left, in front or forward and backwards). They are coloring the letters of each word in groups and in a collaborative activity they will put the letters in order to form the respective word. They are also practicing 4 action words: dance, run, walk and jump (bailar, correr, caminar y saltar respectively). Using TPR=Total Physical Response method, the students will show the meaning of the words they are learning moving their bodies in the desired direction or performing the action word following the video that presents the words.
