INTRODUCTION/CONNECTION: Remember when you were in elementary school and the teacher had a “Spotlight Student?” We are going to work toward an “All About Me” project where we can tell about ourselves - who we are, what we like, and what we do daily - staying in target language for 90% of time.

DIRECT INSTRUCTION: Always use gestures, pictures, or translations  to go with words. We focus on the “Super Seven” words (when you know these words in any language you can communicate effectively). Super 7 - soy una maestra/I am a teacher, estoy en la escuela/I am at school, hay un chico/there is a boy, me gusta chocolate/I like chocolate, me encanta queso/I love cheese, tengo cincuenta y cinco años/I am (I have) 55 years old, Voy a mi casa/I go to my house, quiero un perro/I want a dog
