Months+and+Seasons

For this activity, split the students into groups of three or four. Give each a packet containing a picture representing each season and month with the name of each printed at the top in Spanish. Tell the students that there are sixteen pictures in the packets. Four of the pictures are categories, the other twelve fall underneath the categories, three per category. The four categories are words they will probably not recognize, but 11 of the other 12 pictures are of cognates. I drew a representation on the board with lines, making four columns of four to model how I wanted to see them organize the pictures. I made it into a race by saying that the first two groups to get the pictures into the correct categories would get a couple points of extra credit, but i think it could just be run for fun. After the groups got done figuring out that I wanted them to group months under the seasons they occurred in, I had them all write the words for each month and season in Spanish into their notes, and if I were doing it again, would have written them up on the board after and have them tell me what each month was.
