Day 8 Arts & Crafts, Board game, Team-Based Learning

Day 8

We had a team-based learning activity this morning. Nancy and I discussed using this to explore a Quinceañera celebration. It could be the model for smaller projects (for pairs) related to other holidays.

After lunch we started an arts and crafts project. We will layer designs into a final project. Today's layer was water-color. My final design will be a 'Bienvenidos' sign to hang by my classroom door. I am anxious to see if I have the ability to create the design I see in my head!

We returned to the lab and worked with Dr. Beriswell on using Excel to design board games. I noted some good (previously unknown to me) shortcuts for use in Excel. One is using ALT + enter to start a new line of text within the current cell. I am adapting my game to be a trip through Spain with questions related to Spanish culture, Spanish history, travel vocabulary and prices (numbers) in Euros.


Nancy and I decided to work on a Gesture lesson for our mini-project. We both will have materials to collect at home (or school) and bring tomorrow. She will bring me a holiday book for use in my final lesson.

¡Hasta mañana!
