"Hola, clase! Buenas tardes! Today, we are going to learn about something very exciting: la casa, which means 'the house' in Spanish. Can anyone tell me what kinds of rooms are found in a house?
[Pause for student responses.]
"Great! In English, we might say 'bedroom,' 'kitchen,' or 'living room.' We will learn how to say these rooms in Spanish! To help us, I have some pictures."
[Show visual aids of different rooms.]
"¿Qué es esto?" [Point to an image and ask students to respond.]
"Perfect! This is "la cocina," the kitchen! Let's see what other rooms we can find!"
"Now that we've introduced the topic, let’s look at some important vocabulary words. I’ll write them on the whiteboard.
[Write the words: cocina, dormitorio, sala, baño, and comedor.]
"Repeat after me:
"Excellent! Let’s practice pronunciation again. I will say a word, and then you will all repeat it back to me. Ready?
[Cue students to repeat after you for each word.]
"Very good! Remember, the key to learning is practice. Let's keep these words in mind as we move on!"
"Now it’s time for a fun activity! I have some printable vocabulary cards for you.
[Distribute the cards.]
"Your job is to fill in the names of the rooms we've learned today. Next to each word, you will draw a picture that represents that room.
"Remember, if you need help, just raise your hand, and I’ll come to assist you! Let’s get started. You have 10 minutes."
[Circulate the room to assist students as they work.]
"Time’s up! Now, let’s check your vocabulary cards. Please pass them to the front, or hold them up so I can take a look.
[Walk around the class and review each student’s card quietly.]
"Great job! I see so many wonderful illustrations. I’ll give you a little feedback on your work, but we won't present them today. Just remember, keep practicing these words at home!"
"Before we finish, let’s summarize what we’ve learned today. Can anyone remind me of one room and how to say it in Spanish?
[Encourage responses.]
"Fantastic! You all did so well! For homework, I want you to draw a simple layout of a house and label each room in Spanish. Make sure to include 'la cocina,' 'el dormitorio,' and the rest!
"Bring your drawings back for our next class, and I will check them then. ¡Excelente trabajo hoy! Have a great day!"
