What is a cognate? Cognates are words that have similar pronunciation and spelling in two different languages. Both words often have the same meaning. You are going to do a project using each letter in your first and last name as a separate cognate. Below I have and example of how this can be done using spark.adobe.com
A little Cognate Activity for you.
Without the use of a dictionary copy the Spanish and write the English words.
Armadillo Nostalgia
Tomate Cheque
Tornado Cilindro
Botella Diamante

PROJECT DEADLINE is SEPTEMBER 22, 2020 by 11:59 P.M. NO EXCUSES!!!!!!!!
- First thing you must do is is find a cognate for each letter of your name using a search engine such as Google.
- For each letter of your name, you will type the Spanish Cognate and then provide a picture of that cognate for your poster.
- Your project/cognates must be in a theme. Themes are personal, you may choose from a variety of themes depending the availability of cognates. Notice my theme has to do with magic. Sometimes one theme works better than others. It's your choice.
- NOTE that the words you choose MUST be real cognates and they cannot be proper nouns. Names are not cognates.
- After you find your cognates and pictures, use your student email to log into spark.adobe.com to create your masterpiece.
- If you feel you need a little tutorial on how to use Spark Adobe click on this short video.
As you can see, this is the example I am sharing with you, it is the same one I shared in class. Only difference is that I made this one a PNG and not a video. There are so many wonderful things you can do with this medium, you get carried away!
Here is Maria and for each letter I produced a cognate and a picture. HAVE FUN!!!!!!
