ONE PAGER-AVID STRATEGY Here is an engaging and creative strategy to review grammar concepts, short stories, books, articles, poems, etc. About six years ago, I incorporated One Pagers and Interactive Notebooks into my Spanish classes and it was a success . My students enjoyed... yes enjoyed this fresh approach to showcase their understanding with a zoom-out effect between each grammar concept.
What's a ONE PAGER? A one pager is a single white one page response to a reading, novel, chapter book, poem or grammar concept in a world language class or other classes. It is a way for students to communicate their knowledge of any material in a unique way. Why do I use them? A one pager allows students to respond to their understanding of any grammar concept, poem, song, short story, etc, by using their imagination and creativity. What is the purpose or function? To document student progress towards Proficiency! In my Spanish I class, students learned about gender of articles and nouns in Spanish and they took notes . Then, to process these grammar concepts they created a personalize ONE-Pager. Students worked individually to express their understanding of articles and nouns in the Spanish language. Each student created their own One-Pager for their Interactive Notebook. What they look like? Example 1 Articles and Nouns One-Pager Requirements: 1. Use unlined white paper 2. Title the One-Pager appropriately (Articles and Nouns) 3. Use colored pens, pencil, or markets. The more visually appealing it is the more you will learn. 4. Fill the entire page. 5. Be purposeful about the arrangement of your One-Pager. For example, have a reason for using a certain color or for placing an object in a certain place. 6. Write at least four grammar rules from your notes on articles and nouns. Use the proper grammatical format. 7. Use two or three visual images, either drawn or cut out from magazines, to create a central focus to your page. If you use a computer image, personalize it to make it your own. 8. Place five essential vocabulary words/phrases around or next to the images. These terms/words/phrases should express the main ideas, your impressions, feelings, or thoughts about what you have learned. 9. Write the main idea of the grammar concept. 10. Write two higher level questions and answer them. Level 1- Define articles and nouns Level 2- Elaborate on the similarities and differences of gender and number in the Spanish language. Level 3- invent/create (write a new story) 11. Put a symbolic colored border around the edges of the page. 12. Write your name on the back. Example 2 You should include the following: Stem Changers 1. Use unlined white paper. 2. Title and symbolic border represents theme (stem-changing verbs). 3. Use colored pens, pencils, or markets. The more visually appealing it is, the more you will learn. 4. Fill the entire page. 5. Include at least 3 illustrations to create a central focus to your One Pager. 6. In order, list all -ar, -er and -ir ending (you may create a chart). 7. Explain. How to conjugate regular verbs? 8. Explain. How to conjugate stem-changing verbs? Elaborate on the process and the differences with regular verbs. 9. Mention the exceptions when conjugating stem-changing verbs in the present tense. 10. List at least five verbs from each group (except for jugar). Refer to your notes. Color code stem changers by groups. For instance all O to UE could be green. 11. Write one sentence using one verb from each stem-changing group. 12. Questions: Answer the following question using complete sentences in English.
