1st Spanish Unit

The first unit in Spanish Class (World Language) was Customs and Traditions. For this unit, we had 3 main activities. The first activity was making a poster about a tradition or custom in our family. I chose to write about the traditions and customs of my birthday. Here were the steps to making this poster

1.  We wrote in our notebooks (not complete sentences) about things I do on my birthday, when my birthday is, who celebrates my birthday with me, etc. Taking Notes 
2. Then, we typed up our notes on a google document, this time putting our notes into full sentences with the help of our Spanish teacher.  Completing Sentences  
3. Next, we shared our document to our Spanish teacher and she edited our work. When she was finished, we fixed our errors. Teacher Editing  
4. Then, once we fixed our errors, we shared our second draft to our Spanish teacher again, getting feedback on our work, and if necessary, our teacher edited again.  Feedback from Teacher/ Edit 
5. Then, we were assigned partners and we shared our final draft to them, and they did the final editing, while we edited theirs.  Student Edit
6. On the final day, we added images to make our poster lively, entertaining and creative. When we finished, we printed our posters.  Adding Images/ Printing
7. Then, for homework, we practiced our poster by memorizing our poster the best we could for presentation day. Memorizing Poster
8.  Then, after a few days of practice at home, we presented our poster to the class without looking at the poster! Presenting to the Class 
9. After the presentation, we were graded on a rubric and for homework we had to get it signed. Graded and Signed  

  I really enjoyed this unit and to be honest, I was kind of nervous before my presentation (step 8).
