Students arrived and corrected their quiz they took Monday using notes. If they were unable to finish in the first 5 minutes of class, they need to finish as homework.
Students called out the months which I wrote on the board. I presented a poem that talk about weather and we learned weather-related phrases. The poem is attached.
After going over the meaning of the poem, students were given attached sheet with photos. There are 12 photos, each matching a description of a month from the poem. Students were to cut out the photos, put them in order and paste them on a big sheet of construction paper. Along with the photos, students wrote the whole poem.
Tarea: finish correcting test if student didn't finish in class.

Students learned the following phrases:

Using these questions, students lined themselves up in order of birthday.
