Classroom setup día 1

I FINALLY made it into my room to really get into setup. I went in last week to bring some stuff, but I spent a good 3 hours there today. So I thought I'd share some of my new creations.

One of my bulletin boards. This is just a beginning of the year one.

I include famous Spanish-speaking celebrities, with some quotes around their faces.
Then I include some common careers where Spanish can be helpful!



I decided to make a 1 MINUTE UNTIL DISMISSAL sign(s) that I found on Pinterest here.  No where near as together, but I like the setup for now.



Then I decided I needed a  "Voice-O-Meter" (Contador de la voz).  This is a change-up from my stop-light format I used last year. I'm not 100% sure if I'm going to leave it one the ribbon.





Finally, I really liked all the elementary ed curtains I saw on Pinterest, but thought this might be a good idea to top my blinds: PAPEL PICADO! :)



I just liked the way that my back white board looked, so I'm including that.


Please leave me some comments and let me know what you think! I'll be back later this week with the finished product (hopefully)! 

¡Hasta luego!

    Thanks for your comment on my blog! I love seeing ideas and resources from other Spanish teachers. I think it's great that we both teach middle school. :)

    Looking forward to seeing your future posts!

So far

It's hard to believe that we're already a few weeks into this school year. It's been going well. I wanted to touch base & let you know how some of my ideas have been working out so far. TWO WEEK MODEL First of all, I love this idea! I think it's going to keep me on track in the long run. My students are still only in the input "week" (I teach block schedule, and don't see the students every day. Every other day for 63 minutes). We had so many drills last week, that I lost class time in almost all of my classes. That being said, I love what I'm seeing so far! I had a handful of students volunteering for reading items in Spanish, which was awesome! Even if they made mistakes, this format of the input week gives them the time to get used to hearing the vocab. for a long time before they're saying it. I used this reading  to go with their Subject Pronouns grammar section just yesterday, and I'm really impressed with how much they were abl...

Back to School Blessing!

What?! Already?! Yesterday in church, we received the "back to school blessing" for teachers and students. It seems like summer just started, especially because we had a lot of snow days this winter. At any rate, I thought I'd share some ideas that I've been creating for this upcoming school year. What does my grade mean poster? On certain in-class assignments, I assign students a check system. It's something that I started doing, mostly because my cooperating teacher did this when she graded. I don't like to do this for everything, but when I was looking through Pinterest this summer, I saw this: http://www.pinterest.com/pin/282389839110118519/ *please reference the pin above, I'm not sure who created this, so if you know, please let me know!* It made me realize, this is basically what I've been doing. So I've created this . It reminds of a proficiency based scale at the bare minimum. I don't use as many numbers, as I use symbols...
