This past week, my Spanish 1 class made this foldable "craft" to help my students keep straight the differences between possessive adjectives, direct object pronouns, subject pronouns, and articles. Within 5 months, students have to understand the different spellings, uses, and meanings of the following words: Mi, tu, su, nuestro, me, te, lo, la, los, las, nos, yo, tú, él, ella, usted, nosotros, ustedes, ellos, ellas, el, los, las, la.
¡AYE CHIHUAHUA! ¡Me duele la cabeza!
When I introduce this foldable learning tool, I tell my students we are going to have arts and crafts time. It involves folding and cutting, that's a craft right? At times, this has lead to the female students in my class insisting, "this isn't a real craft... it's a man craft!". AKA, "Maft" Check out this YouTube video for how to construct the foldable "craft".
For fun, we turned ours into an arts and crafts competition. Students could decorate their "craft", and enter it into one of four categories:
-Manliest
-Most Creative
-Most Decorated
-Prettiest
Check out some of the finished products!
