Students write, illustrate, and publish five vignettes of their lives, using the preterite and the imperfect. They will create a product that they will be proud to share, and that their parents will love!
Written for Spanish, but appropriate for any language with a preterite/imperfect distinction in the past tense.
Includes:
2-sided preterite brainstorming sheet
2-sided imperfect brainstorming sheet
Self or peer-editing checklist
Grading rubric
Reflective checklist
Students brainstorm about many experiences that they might write about and then select 5 to focus on. Then they brainstorm all of the background details of the experience, and choose those that will most effectively enhance their vignettes.
Final product includes the 5 vignettes with illustrations.
Please let me know if you use this activity--I'd love to hear how it goes!

This was very creative and easy to adapt to many levels of skills and possible outcomes. I am using it as a quiz grade, but it can be a tests, a class activity or even a oral presentation one.

TEACHING EXPERIENCE
Subject Area:
I have 23 years of experience in the classroom. I've taught Spanish most of my career, with a few years of Language Arts thrown in. I spent 13 years at the middle school level, and am in my 9th year at high school. I love both levels, and often can't believe how lucky I am to be in this profession. I taught a Spanish Teaching Methods course at BYU as an adjunct professor for two semesters, and loved that experience. When I retire from public school, my goal is to get a doctorate and start a second career at the university level.
