Today was spent focusing on vocabulary and grammar. Writing the grammatical context cues on the board seemed to help them sort out what part of speech to use. They worked in groups to complete the exercises, and there were some lively discussions going on. Even after all these years of acting as facilitator on these types of exercises, I still have to remind myself not to interfere; they always sort out the correct answer (while using the target language), or they ask me to step in to settle the argument. I noticed in my textbook that I had, at some point, made a note to myself to create a handout worksheet as an introduction to the suffix and grammatical point of the day. Happily, I had done that, and it served as a good ice-breaker and introduction to the lesson.
