Here's a quote to give you a little #mondaymotivation:
"Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things, but learning another way to think about things."
- Flora Lewis
Do your students think this is true? Discuss it! Why or why not?

It's time for mini-lesson Monday!
This week, give the game Noun Mania a try.
Instructions: Give students a noun. Have them write the word on a sheet of paper. Say "Go!" and have students extend their list by writing a noun that begins with the last letter of the noun before it.
The person with the longest list of nouns at the end of three minutes is the winner. (For example: house, elephant, toe, egg, gerbil, ladder, road, dollar, robot).
Be sure to verify all the winner's words are nouns, though!
