Mi Calendario: A Personal Calendar Project!
Using our knowledge earned over the Calendar unit, we created personal calendars that demonstrated our understanding of the days of
the week (dotw), numbers 1-31, the months, and seasons in Spanish. Students had the choice of using a template online or creating one
by hand.
Below are the IB formatted lesson plan and two examples of student work!
