Before entering my classroom, I used to check on each one of my students and they usually replied with one or the same words. To add more variety, I listed some expressions they could use instead of the ones they had been using and assigned one to each student. Then, I took a picture of them, recorded a clip of them using and acting out the expression. With their photos, I added the expressions in big letters to turn them into small posters I used to decorate the entrance of my classroom. With their videos, I created a slideshow and post it on Seesaw so that they could practice the expressions at home and teach them to their families.
Now, my kids will be reviewing the expressions with their parents using this Seesaw activity. They will check on Paco first to get some oral input before I get to see them Live at some point in the next weeks.
Since I won’t be there to clarify what the expressions mean, I translated the expressions for the parents to guide their kids and you can find the link to the video and the PDF file with the images below.
