This calendar has days organized by color to help children with the abstract idea of days. This is also a great calendar for a foreign language classroom to review dates, day of the week, colors, numbers, etc. Sunday is the "red day," Monday is the "orange day," Tuesday is the "blue day," etc. Each of the seven colors has number 1-31 as the dates could be any one of the 7 days of the week in any given month. There are Letter squares with the first letter (or two) of the weekdays. These are bot

Teaching children the abstract idea of days can be challenging. Many calendars are coded by color, but some children are color blind and cannot differentiate certain days.

About the store

Experience

I have taught Spanish for 20 years in the High School and Higher Education Settings.

Teaching style

I'm an in-the-middle educator. Meaning that Foreign Language Acquisition methodology usually swings form one extreme to the other (think super-grammar-based to full-immersion). I believe firmly all methodologies have pros and I like to integrate those in to my teaching style. I shoot for 90% TL in the classroom, utilize scores of authentic videos and readings each year, and believe grammar to be an aid for students in second language acquisition.

Additional biographical information

The current trend in WL is for classrooms to be 90-100% TL. Some students need the grammar laid out for them. Some students consistently make the same grammar error no matter how much input is given. Some students have more of a mathematical mind and benefit from being shown the patterns instead of simply picking them up through input. Some teachers still long to communicate the linguistical aspect of language. Some teachers believe in Grammar being a springboard. This store is for those who fit any or all of the above!
