Build Background

Activate Prior Knowledge Tell children:Hoy aprendern sobre diferentes tiposde profesiones que tienen las personas, como carpintero, doctor y granjero.Ask childrenwhat they want to be when they grow up. Ask them to draw a picture of

themselves working in their profession of choice and discuss the drawings as a

class.Qu quieren ser cuando crezcan? Por qu? Qu hacen en este dibujo?Encourage

children to write the name of the job they chose on their drawings and to label

them.

Introduce the Focus Skill: Letter Sounds Explain that each job namein the book begins with a different letter of the alphabet. Review letters and

sounds using the following routine:Esta es la letra (Aa).Hace el sonido (/a/) como

en (astronauta). Point to (astronauta) on (p. 4). Then have children repeat the

following as you emphasize the (/a/) sound:(Ana quiere ser astronauta). You may

wish to use this routine throughout the week to review sounds that children have difculty with.

Acquire New Vocabulary Introduce thePalabras nuevas on p. 35. Read each word aloud and use it in a sentence, emphasizingthe initial letter sound in the key word. For example, say: Ato los cordones de mis zapatos. Then play Find That Word! as a class. Have

partners ip through the book and ask them to nd all of thePalabras nuevas and write down the corresponding page number for each

one. The pair that nds the most words rst wins! Then review the words children wrote and discuss their denitions as a class.

Read and Respond Display the book. Read the title and author name aloud as you track the print. After reading each page,point to the letter and say the job name. Have children repeat. Then ask children to use describing words to talk about what each

job entails. Encourage them to use the new words they learned. For example, after reading pp. 1011, say:Los exploradores tienen que ser

valientes para explorar el mundo. Los fotgrafos deben seringeniosos para sacar fotosfenmenales. Have children write sentences about

5 of the jobs in the book. Tell them to use as many of the new words in their sentences as possible. For example:La doctora me vacun

y me dio medicina. Una nadadora es una deportista que nada en piscinas. Then stimulate conversation about how people in different

professions interact with one another, and what types of jobs fall under the same categories. For example:Los cirujanos son doctores. Los

herreros y los albailes trabajan juntos. Los locutores comentan sobre las noticias que investigan los reporteros.

Curricular Enrichment: Social Studies Explain to children that tomorrow will be Career Day. They willrole-play the job of their choice. First, they will readQu interesante!on pp. 3639 and think about what they want to be when

they grow up. Then they will nd out what people who have that job do and what they wear. You may want to provide access

to a computer for children to conduct additional research. Tell children they will dress up like someone who does their job.

They can borrow a uniform or clothing from home, wear a Halloween costume, or use any other props. On Career Day,

distribute construction paper, markers or colored pencils, adhesive tape, and scissors for children to add nishing touches

to their costumes. Before beginning the role-play, ask the class to guess what each profession is. Then encourage children to

role-play by setting the scene. For example, say:Me lastim en el patio de recreo. Quin me puede ayudar? (El nio quien juega el papel del

doctor responde: Yo puedo. Yo soy doctor.) Discuss the jobs and their similarities and differences as a class.

Home Connection (Teacher, you may want to photocopy thisactivity for children to complete with a family member.)

Talk with your child about the jobs he/she learned about.

Discuss your job with your child. For example: Soy estilista. Yo

me dedico a cortar el cabello de las personas. Encourage him/her

to ask you about what your job involves and why you chose

that profession. Then ask your child to tell you what he or she

wants to be when he/she grows up and why.
