Suggested Activities

Introducing the Vocabulary

Step 1

▪ Introduce the vocabulary by showing large images of clothing.  Elicit from the students  the name   for each of the clothing in Spanish, by asking the following questions:

¿Cómo se llama esta prenda de vestir en español?

¿Cuál es el nombre de esta prenda de vestir en español?

¿Cómo se llama esto en español? (Showing the item)

The teacher will write the name of the clothing in Spanish. In the event that the students don’t know the name of some clothing in Spanish, then the teacher will write it for them.

 

Practicing the Vocabulary

Step 1

With anticipation, print cards with the images of the clothing.

Divide the class in two groups; group “A” and group “B”.

Place the printed cards on a table at the front of the class.

 

Step 2

Having everything ready, students will play the following game.

Each group will select one of their members to go compete.

The two participants are to stand beside the table but facing away from it.

The teacher will give the name of clothing in Spanish.

Both participants should turn around and look for the image of the clothing.

The first student to find the correct image has to show it to the rest of the class and reemphasize its Spanish name.

The winner adds point for his/her group. 

The loser will remain competing until he/she wins.

 

Note: If any of the participant shows an incorrect image, a point will be deducted from his/her group.

The class will continue with this activity until most of the students have participated in the game.
