Breakdown
of the activity.
1.
The activity starts by providing the students with
the story of the photographer elephant. It can be found on this link:
2.
Students read out loud taking turns. After
reading the story, students have comprehension questions in Spanish to ensure
they understand the plot, characters, and themes of the story. This step will
help reinforce their understanding before moving on to analysis.
3.
Students will get divided into groups and the
teacher will assign each group a character from the story. Students are asked
to analyze their assigned character's personality traits, motivations, and role
in the story. They should discuss these aspects in Spanish and provide evidence
from the text to support their analysis.
4.
Another set of groups analyzes the setting and
plot of the story. They should discuss the significance of the setting, how it
contributes to the story's themes, and the development of the plot. Again, they
should use evidence from the text to support their analysis.
5.
Creative part: each student chooses a character
or scene from the story and creates a drawing of it. They can either draw the
characters or depict a scene from the story.
6.
Once the drawings are completed, have the
students present their work to the class in Spanish. They should explain which
character or scene they chose, why they chose it, and how their drawing
reflects their understanding of the story.
