Throw soft ball to a pupis with a question, e.g. ¿Qué
tal? Pupil either repeats or says another question.
Throw ball to another pupil with the question the
previous pupil said to see if they can say a new one.
Introduce ‘Juan Pequeño baila’ (Little John dance)
from ‘Take 10’ in Spanish.
Play Simón dice - ‘Tocad…’ with body parts.
Teacher calls out the known body parts and pupils
put one hand up if it is a body part we have 1 of and
two if we have 2 of them. This is done again, but,
faster. A pupil can have a go at being the teacher.
Teacher then introduces the plurals of the body parts
we have 2 of, by saying the singular first, then the
plural, with pupils doing actions, e.g. el codo, los
codos (touching one and then two) – see list of body
parts singular and plural. Two new body parts are
taught – el diente, los dientes and el cuerpo
Play ‘reverse’ bingo which is a table game where
each pupil is given a card (use either small word or
picture cards). Pupils stand up if they have the card
teacher calls out, and the winning table is the one
where everyone is standing. This game practises
‘the’ – el, los, la and las + nouns.
Observe pupil performance in singular/plural body parts’ activity
