  4. Lab debrief • Who is your audience for these labs? • How do you decide what the content objective should be? • Standards • Student assessments • But for one activity, there really should just be one content objective

  5. Content Objectives • Culture as CO • Culture as launching pad for language-related CO • Separate the wheat from the chaff: What language is critical in order for ss to participate accurately? What language is nebenbei, not necessary for ss to know?

  6. If CO is vocab… • …then understanding grammar of gustaría is not important • But…do you give vocab items that required gustaría and gustarían? • Un/una & un/une & ein/eine/ein • If CO is not vocab, then all this changes

  7. Editing… • Die Höchstgeschwindigkeitsbegrenzung • T performance, not S learning/interacting • Key questions: • Why is this slide / handout / activity here? • How does it connect to what came before? • How does it connect to what comes next? • How does it connect to my COs / LOs?

  8. Pre – During – Post Activities • Think – pair – share: • What does a student need to know in order to participate in and understand a text / viewing / listening activity? • Stumped?

  9. Comprehension depends on… • Building background • Connecting learning opportunities to students’ experiences and background • Connecting learning opportunities to previous instruction • Vocabulary development

  10. Your turn Turn to the cloze activity – complete Once upon a time, long ago and far away, there lived a gentle queen. It was the deepest and darkest (1) ofwinters, and every day the gentle queen would spend (2) herafternoons sitting with her needlework at the only window in the (3) sunlight. The castle window itself was framed in blackest ebony, (4) andanyone passing below could gaze upon the beautiful queen, (5) prettyas a picture, as she quietly worked at her (6) embroidery. One day, as she sat sewing, she pricked her finger (7) withher needle, and three rich, red drops of blood (8) fellupon the glistening snow below. At the sight of the red blood upon the (9) whitesnow, the gentle queen whispered: “Oh, how I wish (10) fora baby daughter with hair as black as ebony, (11) lipsas red as blood, and skin as white as snow.” And so it came (12) topass that the queen gave birth to such a (13) child, whom she called Snow White.

  11. Your turn, still • Now turn to the activity plan template. With a partner, consider the following questions and complete the template: • What does a student need to know in order to make sense of the paragraph on your handout? • Which aspects of that paragraph would you need to pre-teach in order for students to understand?

  12. Reading – Viewing - Listening • We can’t just give texts* to students and say “go!” • Instead, we need to…. • Build background • Develop vocabulary • Check for comprehension • Allow for student extension and expression *by “text,” I mean written, visual or aural
