Spanish 7 and SLA: Cognate Project Instructions

Spanish

Sra. Riordan

Project due:____9.17 or 9.20____________

                As you begin studying el español, you will notice that there are a few words and phrases that you can already understand; this is because many words are basically the same in both English and Spanish.  We call these words or phrases “cognates”.  For example, you can easily understand the word “teléfono”, meaning telephone.  But ojo, be careful, there are many amigos falsos (false friends) that may look the same but have different meanings.  An example of this is una librería (which means bookstore in Spanish, not library.  A library is una biblioteca.)

          You will design a small book or a poster (no larger than HALF the size of a poster board). The book or poster will contain a cognate that begins with every letter of the Spanish alphabet and include an illustration for each word.  To find words, scan a textbook, dictionary, or even go on the internet.  Arrange these letters and words in the book or on the poster.  Be creative!  Design the poster in a culturally significant shape: un sombrero or in the shape of a country!  Use paint, glitter, pictures, computer graphics, personal artwork, whatever!  Verify your spellings (along with accent marks). 

The “Before you turn your project in” Checklist:

o   Word list is turned in with 5 sentences _______________. 

o   All word choices are close enough to qualify as Spanish/English cognates.

o   There are no grammar or spelling mistakes.

o   Each word is illustrated.

o   Project is turned in on time _________________. (test grade)

o   Blank rubric is included with project.

o   Poster is no larger than 11”x14”.

                    This rubric is to be turned in with your project!  (5 points off if not included with project. 20 points off for each day project is late.)

I am very excited for my second year at Pin Oak!

I'm fascinated by the Spanish language and cultures. I learned Spanish in Benissa, Spain at a local elementary school. Later, when I moved to Texas I continued studying the language and literature at the high school and college levels. At Trinity University in San Antonio, Spanish was one of my majors. I also had the opportunity in college to attend the Universidad Complutense de Madrid. After college, I moved to Guanajuato, Mexico and taught at the Universidad de Celaya. I speak Spanish at home with my son and we enjoyed a vacation in Spain this past summer. 

Welcome back!

I hope everyone had a fantastic summer! I'm looking forward to meeting you at Charger camp and the first day of school.

For our class, please be sure to have the following materials:

1. Notebook
2. Binder or folder
3. Pens or pencils in various colors. 

Happy Summer!

Have a wonderful summer holiday! I look forward to seeing all of you in August! 😊

Practice Duolingo and Quizlet!
