Preparing for our Adventure

This week my third, fourth and fifth graders finally got to create their suitcases and passports for our "trip"! Just like any class, the first few days aren't quite as fun as you would like because we have to establish procedures and expectations. So, they started out learning about the Spanish language, the various countries that speak it and it's origin. That meant that getting to exercise their creativity today was all the more fun! 
We began the lesson reviewing content from the previous days including greetings, colors, numbers and Spanish-speaking countries and then got to work filling out our passports with the correct information (in Spanish of course!) and then decorating and creating our suitcases. If you want to create suitcases with your students or learn more about my Passport to Spanish units you can find them on TpT.
