Spanish III 02-15-07

  • Warm-up: page 17, Activities 2 & 3-part 1. Students wrote these out while I stamped and checked off Act. 5 & 6 + verb grid from page 19.
  • We corrected Act. 5, reviewing the regular conjugations of the preterite.
  • With our “peluquera” partner, we did part 2 of Activity 3 – asking and answering questions about what we did during our last vacation. We practiced asking follow-up questions: Qué hiciste, con quién(es), (A)dónde, cuándo, por qué.
  • We went to conjuguemos.com and played the 5-minute conjugation game using all of the regular verbs and all of the pronouns. Everyone wrote all of the forms as we worked on these as a whole class. We reviewed the meanings of the verbs, especially: barrer – to sweep, borrar – to erase, asistir-to attend, prestar – to lend.
  • We played battleship with our mecánica partner, practicing the preterite for: caminar, corer, vivir, hacer, dar, ver, buscar, investigar, almorzar.
  • I introduced the homework: Writing sentences based on interrogatives.
  • Tarea / Homework:
    1. Names / seating chart test tomorrow.
    2. 10 “interrogative sentences” based on Quién, Qué Actividad, Dónde, Cuándo, con quién(es).

For EACH sentence be sure to use:

10 different subjects (5 singular/5 plurals)

The vocabulary from pp. 16 & 18

The verbs from pp 17 & 19

Different place names, time expressions,

and other people who also did the activity.
