not have metal. Have children explain their

choices.

Vocabulary Building VocabularySome children may see the card for soga (rope)

and call it cuerda (cord). Explain that soga (rope) is

a large thick cord made of threads or wire twisted

together.

SLL Spanish-Language LearnersDivide the class into pairs. Have one child pick a

card and show it to a partner, who should then

say the word. Have pairs continue this process

with the remaining cards. Listen and provide

guidance as necessary.

Check their pronunciations and their ability to

isolate and discriminate among the beginning

sounds in the sort.
