| Title | Ideas for Teaching Clothes in Spanish |
| Body | An FLTEACH user requested recommendations for fun activities to teach clothing/body vocabulary. Here are some of the ideas submitted: Have a fashion show! A group of three would prepare a presentation (using whatever vocabulary and grammar structures you are teaching) and each would have to take a turn at modeling an outfit, and describing an outfit. We made a "runway" in the middle of the class, and used a big spotlight on the model. Otlewski, A. Re: Teaching Clothing, HS Spanish. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv (FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU, 20 Jan 2007). --- On the first day of teaching this unit, I brought in old (clean) clothes either of my own or cheap things I'd bought at goodwill. At the door I passed out an article (or two) of clothing but didn't tell them what it was for. As I introduced each new word I would ask "Quien tiene la corbata?" and then as our unit included fabrics I later would ask "Quien tiene el chandal flojo (a rayas, florado etc.)?" Bastanfar, C. Re: Teaching Clothing, HS Spanish. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv (FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU, 21 Jan 2007). --- I have a box of clothing articles-clean, of course. I have a student put on all the clothing. Then this student takes off an article and s/he calls on a student to identify the article. Another activity can be to remove the piece of clothing, call on a student and have that student use the article in a sentence. Houlihan, A. Re: Teaching Clothing, HS Spanish. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv (FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU, 22 Jan 2007). --- When I learned clothing in high school, my teacher came in dressed like a clown (wig, crazy shoes, red nose, and all), and described everything by pointing to the different things she was wearing in Spanish. She spoke in Spanish the whole time but in such a way that we could all understand everything she was saying. Fischerkeller, E. Re: Teaching Clothing, HS Spanish.
