Spanish III & Spanish IV 03-19-07

• Both classes started off with editing circles for their different past tense projects due tomorrow. Spanish IV – your Shadow story about a childhood event; Spanish III your Power Point presentation about a trip to a national park in a Spanish-speaking country.

• The editing circles took the bulk of the class in all sections. See the Círculos redactors on the previous blog entry to this one, to see the categories and the guiding questions if you want to check your own work. Spanish III got daily points for having completed and brought their outlines (were to have been done in-class last Wednesday) and rough drafts. I circulated and answered questions.

• Periods 1 & 2: got grade printouts, if your parents didn’t come to conferences. Please have them signed and return tomorrow. Period 4 – I didn’t get them to you, so we’ll do this tomorrow for the following day.

• Spanish IV – we reviewed the test over the past tenses from last Wednesday.
