Program Summary

Often students gain knowledge of specific letters and numbers in their classrooms, but do not have the opportunity to really relates this knowledge to the world around them while in their own classrooms. This lesson will focus on using and mastering letter recognition in the target language through group work, incorporating art and creative aspects and real world application.  Students will be given a letter and various craft items such as images that relate to the letter and some that do not, newspaper adds and the like.  In groups, students must work together to create a collage that represents the number, letter or subject and present it to the class.  Students must take their knowledge of the subject and known representations learned in the classroom and extend them to the world by way of magazines, newspaper clipping and other similar materials.  This lesson incorporates, group work, target language use and knowledge, speaking and listening skills, presentation skills as well as fine motor skills.  This lesson is adaptable to many different subjects and grades.
