pictures of people/animals and decide if they would address them as tú or usted. Explain that in some
hispanic families children refer to their parents with usted.

use pictures to help students to see the difference between plural and singular.
10 minutes: Show students various examples of nouns with their article (la señora, el señor, la

words that end in –a are usually feminine. Show some exceptions to the rule and explain that words
that end in –e or a constant have genders that can’t be predicted. Show students how to look up the
gender of a word in the dictionary or on rae.es.

Then I will ask them when they do those things. I will show students a copy of my daily schedule and say
a las seis de la mañana me levanto, a las dos de la tarde tomo una siesta, ect. emphasizing patterns
(getting up at 6:00 am was just an example, I would NEVER do that in real life unless I absolutely had to

differences.

person B will have a different set of questions and a different schedule. Person A will ask ¿A qué
hora….? and person B will have to look on their schedule for the answer. Then person B asks person A a
question. I will model this activity before students are asked to do it.
