Somos 2 Unit 1

This unit is about laying a solid foundation in the past tenses for a year of rich, student-centered, comprehension-based instruction. While originally designed to start the year in a Level 2 Spanish course, the four lessons included in this unit can be scattered throughout a Level 1 or 2 course in order to expose students to contextualized input in the past tense.

The four lessons included each span several days:

1. WENT card talk
2. The Lion and the Zebra fable
3. Rumor Has It discussion activity
4. Caesar Sentences Card Talk
