En ese Martes no te cases ni embarques.

“Mop up Day”

  • Told our “stories” about our worst date ever to a partner.
  • Corrected exercise 1-34, page 33: Selecting the correct use of the preterite or the imperfect- review of page 32.
  • Corrected the yellow vocabulary translation exercise from Friday’s substitute day.
  • Introduced the “Cuento de sombras” project:
    1. Write a 350-500 word narrative about a childhood event (real or imaginary).
    2. Practice telling it aloud and using shadow figures to “build” the story on the overhead projector while it telling to us.
    3. Rough draft due on Monday – ready for editing circles.
    4. Be ready to present with your final copy (typed, double spaced) with “shadows” on Tuesday.
  • Reviewed for tomorrow’s test on the Preterite and the Imperfect.
