These
sample lesson plans have been designed for a 2-semester course
that has 16 teaching weeks each semester and four contact hours
per week, for a total of 64 contact hours per semester. The
lesson plans presented here are not prescriptive. You should
feel free to present lesson materials as you see fit, tailoring
them to your own teaching preferences and to your students'
learning styles.
The sample plans for Lecciones 1-2 may refer
to the annotations which appear in the side and bottom panels
of the Instructor's Annotated Edition. When planning lessons,
you may find it helpful to glance at this valuable instructional
resource, which contains a wealth of ideas about how to preview
and present vocabulary and grammar topics; present the video
in class; modify and expand activities; and encourage learning
through cooperative work, games, and specialized activities
for heritage speakers.
