Had a student this morning who was quite motivated and wanted to read. Fortunately, I had brought an article about the election describing President-elect Barack Obama and his family. He and I and another student read through it, stopping to review vocabulary (crowd, wept, hugged) and conjugate verbs.
Before that, we went over a worksheet on the modal "can" (completely unintentional: "Yes, We Can!") and I did a dictation asking them to listen and write an address, phone number and person's name. Antonio, the higher level student, then did a mock 911 call where his job was to tell me, the emergency dispatcher, what the problem was and where he was located.
