Lesson 4: I giorni e i mesi
Duration of Days: 7
Lesson Objective
Students will be able to state the date in the target language, as well as engage in spoken language in which they ask the day (today, tomorrow, yesterday), etc. They will also be able to identify their birthdays in the target language.
Che giorno e' oggi? Domani? Ieri?
Qual e' la data oggi?
Quando e' il tuo compleanno?
Connections / Culture / Comparison
Students will understand the idea of the writing the date "backwards" (day/month/year) and that America is one of the only countries who writes it the way we do.
DOK 1: Students listen to a date in the target language and find it on a blank calendar.
DOK 2: Present students with sentences like "The day after tomorrow is Wednesday; what day was yesterday?"
DOK 3: Give students a calendar filled with errors (e.g., months in the wrong order, incorrect day-to-date alignment, or misspelled months). Students must find, explain, and fix the errors.
DOK 4: In small groups, students plan a year-long cultural awareness campaign for their school. They must select one global event per month, justify its importance (investigation), and create a budget and timeline.
-Academic students will take a modified version of the assessment in which they will be provided word banks.
