We're slowly but steadily making our way through our lessons with Alex the Alpaca in my K-3 level classes and the kids are loving it! They definitely look forward to their time with Alex and even though I only see them once a week I am noticing growth in their knowledge and understanding of the language. Today the lesson focused on different types of weather and clothing items needed. It reviewed content from previous lessons covering seasons and months. Students were given new vocabulary using a presentation that included videos, gifs, songs, and discussion in the target language using Alex. We wrapped up the lesson with a listening activity where students were given a large Alex paper and various items of clothing for him to wear. Then, they listened to my description of the weather and the clothing items he needed and put the correct clothing items on top of him to "dress" him for the weather. The kids loved the activity and by the end had gained a pretty good ability to describe basic clothing and weather. They ended class with a worksheet that we did together where they drew the clothing items onto him based on the images/text in each box using the worksheet pictured below and pasted the correct words next to each scene. You can purchase the entire unit focusing on climate at my TPT store using the link below!
