Jamboard warm-up


DIRECT INSTRUCTION:

We'll review our 'irregular' verb ETRE - pronunciation, meaning, how to negate/invert, etc. - see slide #35 (Daily 10)

Let's review our new adjectives! - raise your hand if you are ______, point to someone who is ________, true or false, etc. We'll read your paragraphs from yesterday and guess "who" might have written it. We'll also correct some errors we made yesterday.


We'll practice pronouncing the masculine and feminine variations and practice identifying which gender we are hearing. Finally we'll try translating sentences using the adjectives that we know.


Let's use all of our adjectives - written practice- see practice sheet


Let's describe a classmate. Use 10 adjectives to describe them. See slide #75.


Students will submit their work and then will listen as I read some aloud. Students will listen and determine who is being described.
