WE SHOW CARLA THE PICTURES OF OUR ANIMALS AND SHE ASKS US IF WE KNOW HOW THEY ARE CALLED IN ENGLISH. ERIN SAYS THAT “GOS” IS CALLED DOG AND “GAT” IS CALLED CAT BUT WE DON’T KNOW THE OTHERS. WE DECIDE TO GO AND ASK THE 6th GRADE STUDENTS.
AS WE WILL HAVE TO ASK SEVERAL ANIMALS, WE TAKE THE TABLET TO RECORD WHAT THEY TELL US SO WE CAN REMEMBER THE WORDS LATER.
WHEN WE HAVE ASKED ALL THE ANIMALS WE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT, WE GO BACK TO THE CLASSROOM. WE PLAY THE RECORDING AND STOP TO LISTEN TO THE TRANSLATIONS. ERIN OFFERS TO WRITE THEM DOWN SO THAT WE CAN STICK THEM NEXT TO THE PICTURES AND REMEMBER THEM. LITTLE BY LITTLE WE ALL HELP ERIN TO WRITE THE LIST OF ANIMALS IN OUR OWN WAY IN ENGLISH AND THEN CARLA WRITES THEM NEXT TO US IN HER OWN WAY.
