Spanish II 09-08-06

Spanish II 09-08-06
  • Picture day – students rotated out of class to have their photos taken – be sure you’ve gotten any work that you might have missed while you were out.

  • Turned in 2 signed letters (Workbook & Appropriate Level) And stamped/checked off 5 questions & answers based on the Syllabus. Note: in period 2 one-third of the class choose NOT to do this assignment.  Thank you to those who DID the work; you are setting yourselves up for success.

  • Reviewed the Alphabet: the majority reported never having learned it, so we spent quite a bit of time on this before we were ready to dictate our names to one another.  Keep working on this so you really know your letters!

  • Reviewed numbers from 0-100, Taking notes on the key points.

  • Dictated our phone numbers with our names, to class partners.

  • Quizzed each other on class expectations using the questions we wrote as homework.
