Labeled+pictures+of+cothing+vocab

Use this activity after introducing the clothing vocabulary (Day 2) in conjunction with numbers.

1.) Pass out hand out. 2.) Bring clothes to class. Teacher can hang up each article of clothing one by one in front of the class and ask students “Cuánto cuesta(n)?” and label using white paper and tape. Use this as an opportunity to introduce “It is expensive/cheap.” You can also introduce “talla” and “tamaño” and talk about the differences in sizes used in Spanish-speaking countries and the U.S. Use this as a model for the activity. 3.) Price items. Students can then price all of the items on their sheet and make up a specific size for each. Write the prices and numbers on one side of the picture and leave the other side blank to write different prices and sizes in. To make them use larger numbers tell them that some of the articles of clothes are “Gucci” or some other really expensive brand. 4.) Paired activity. Assign half of the class to be store clerks and the other half customers. Using the two lower right-hand boxes as reminders student A can be the “el/la dependiente” and student B “el/la cliente”. Which ever student in receiving the prices (or simply “It is expensive/cheap.”) and sizes needs to write the information they receive on the other side of the picture. 5.) Switch roles. 6.) Ask students the questions. You could add “How much do the shirt AND the pants cost?” Math problem! 7.) Student can then cut these pictures up and use as flash cards at home or for another class activity. You could also have them color then clothes and work on adjective agreement. Also, instead of using this worksheet have their homework assignment be to draw out, color and label all of the vocabulary and then do the same activity using their own pictures. user:batorbro
