This lesson plan is for a 6th grade beginner Spanish class. The students will finish animal file cards they have been working on in previous classes and present the information orally. They will write short descriptions of animals from Argentina using vocabulary about habitats, physical features, and abilities. Possible challenges are students not remembering vocabulary or structures, or being shy speaking to the class. The teacher will provide guidance and model structures to support the students.

Main Aims:
· Students will finish the animal file card which was started during previous
classes and they will also deliver an oral presentation based on the
information they included.
Personal Aims:
· I will try to better my classroom management.
Materials:
· Cardboards
· Animal images.
Anticipated problems:
· Students may find it difficult to produce on their own small texts because
they may not remember vocabulary or language structures.
· They may also be shy or unwilling to speak in front of the class.
Possible Solutions:
· I can guide their productions by correcting their mistakes, and also give
them an outline of what they should produce. Besides, they will have at
hand photocopies we have worked with that contain parts of the body,
habitats and the use of can/can’t, have got/ haven’t got.

· I can also guide them when giving their oral presentations by asking them
guiding questions and also helping them with pronounciation.
