Title: Ideas for Subjunctive Teaching Activities
Body: A recent discussion on the FLTEACH listserv for ideas for lessons on the subjunctive generated the following suggestions. ---- When I first introduce the subjunctive, I use the analogy of a truck to explain dependent and independent clauses. Then we form sentences using implied command and emotion. I show them how the "formula" of two different subject plus a verb/expression of implied coomand or emotion in the cab part of the truck requires the use of the subjuntive in the trailer part of the truck. This image seems to work in terms of sentence structure. Damascus, B. Re: Teaching subjunctive. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (19 Nov. 2005). ---- Have them create ideal situations: ideal school ideal boss ideal husband/wife ideal secretary Nelson, A. Re: Teaching subjunctive. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (17 Nov. 2005). ---- Several of us at Liverpool High School teach the subjunctive concept using Oreos. 1. The students have a reference packet with two pages of notes explaining the subjunctive. 2. Before introducing the concept, I will make many statements in English that use the subjunctive. (I hope my students do well on their tests. I'm suggest Juan is start arriving on time to class. etc.) 3. I ask the students what those sentences have in common. Usually, they mention two parties being involved / someone trying to get someone else to do something / the second half of the sentence is kind of in the future. 4. Then I hang up five posters. Sub1 / Verb1 / Que / Sub2 / Verb2 5. I draw one big circle around S1 and V1. 6. I draw another big circle around S2 and V2. 7. I then explain to them the basic concept of the subjunctive (I only deal with the concept of influence at first.) 8. I show them that there are two distinct parts, separated by QUE. 9. I then hand out Oreos but tell them they can't eat them. 10. We discuss how the Oreo is like the subjunctive (two chocolate parts are the two circles and the white stuff is the QUE). 11. To eat them, they have to give me a sentence (first in English - then in Spanish) that demonstrates the subjunctive concept and formation. 12. Then we practice, practice, practice, practice and practice. I eventually add other concepts (emotions, doubt, etc.) The Oreo image sticks with them. They remember that there are two halves separated by Que. When a kid is speaking or writing and I want to do a quick correction, I can just say "Oreos" and they remember and fix their error. Pento, A. Re: Teaching subjunctive. Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (17 Nov. 2005).
