of the arrival of Juan Ponce de León in the New
World.

He arrived in 1508, after seeing the island in
1493 while traveling with Christopher Columbus.
What would one expect to find on the island?

students to put their pictures and captions in
the order in which the activities occur, labeled

,
Día dos
, and
Día tres
. Have students
decorate a front and a back cover for their photo
diary before presenting them to the class.

familiar words or cognates. Point out that some
of the words are from the original inhabitants
of the island. Have them list the words and
write a definition according to the reading.
Teaching suggestions
DEVELOPING LEARNERS
r
To visually reinforce the vocabulary for the
parts of a house (and the information about
the house presented in the reading), you may
want to ask students to draw the layout of
the rooms as they imagine it based on the
description in the diary.
EXPANDING LEARNERS
r
Have students write a letter back to the
author of the diary. They can write it from
the point of view of a
Taíno
adolescent who
lives in a
bohío
. (Information found in the
Conexiones
reading.) What kind of
information would they exchange?

Mi casa de Caparra es bonita. Mi madre y yo estamos muy bien aquí.
La sala y la cocina son muy grandes. Casi siempre tenemos que abrir
las ventanas y las puertas porque aquí hace calor. Mi dormitorio es pequeño.
Hay una cama y una mesita de noche.
Mi madre y yo tenemos muchas tareas. Todos los días ella barre el suelo.
A veces yo preparo un plato con arroz, carne y verduras. Aquí se llama asopao.
También lavo los platos y limpio la casa.
Tengo ganas de visitar la bahía, pero está muy lejos de aquí. Mi tío Juan Ponce
de León tiene una casa allí. Sus cartas son muy interesantes.
