ELEMENTARY SPANISH CURRICULUM PROJECT

Kindergarten

Topic: Body and Senses

(Last Updated: August 14, 2006)

Objectives*:

  1. Students will recognize/identify: soft, hard, rough, bumpy, smooth, fluffy.

*Notas: The lesson plans and scripts match the above objective, which was merely for the sense of touch. Jane Rupel recommends restructuring this topic to include the following objectives:

  1. When given direction in Spanish, students will point to, or move, the correct body part: cabeza, ojos, nariz, boca, orejas, pelo, brazos, piernas, pies, manos, dedos.
  2. Students will match each of the five senses (or action verb indicating that sense) with the appropriate body part: ojos/vista/ver; orejas/oído/oir; nariz/olfato/oler; boca/sabor/probar; dedos/tacto/tocar.
  3. For each sense, students will distinguish between opposing or complementary sensations.  Tacto: rugoso/liso; duro/suave; Olfato: bueno/malo; Sabor: dulce/agrio; Vista: blanco/negro; pequeño/grande
