the end of the course, we’ll look back on everything we’ve been able to do!
- I can introduce myself and others (provide basic personal information, introduce someone else, respond to an
introduction)
- I can answer a variety of simple questions (what I like and dislike, what I am doing and what I did, where I’m going or
where I went, about something I’ve learned)
- I can make simple statements in a conversation (tell someone what I am doing, say where I went, whom I am going
to see, express a positive reaction like “great!”)

Isabela loves taking photos, and she takes a lot of them throughout her adventures! Using the book, identify all the
times Isabela has taken a photo, and what she’s taken photos of. Then, using PowerPoint (or a similar program), create
her photo album! You can use a Google image search to find the right pictures that match the descriptions of her photos
in the book. Use the book to help you write a caption for each one (presentational writing). You will share your album
with the class (presentational speaking). There are fifteen times that Isabela (or her mamá) take pictures in the book.
You should have at least ten of them in your album.
To recap:
Step 1 – skim through the book to find all the times Isabela has taken photos, and make notes about them.
Step 2 – search for appropriate images that match Isabela’s photo descriptions and make a digital album of them in
PowerPoint or a similar program.
Step 3 – add captions to each photo in Spanish. You can use the book to help you. Remember to keep your language
consistent – if you use “I” language, make sure all the captions use “I.” If you use the third person (“she”), make sure all
the captions use third person language.
