Spanish IV 05-10-07

• Verb quiz, group #11: impedir-morir. We took the quiz, then corrected it in class.
• Reviewed the material for the projects required of everyone for Monday – I also distributed a copy of the grading sheet, so students can refer to it while preparing to assure themselves they had all the required elements included.
• We divided ourselves into 4 groups for the first part of our next interactive oral: ¿A quiénes se invita a cenar? – the groups negotiated among themselves who they would invite to this “extraordinary dinner” where anyone ever born could be included, and what the seating arrangement should be to best enhance the evening.
• Next, the groups decided who would “defend” which guests to the rest of the class on Monday – the students will each need to explain why the guests were selected and be able defend their choices, while the other students ask probing questions of them.
• I announced the verbs to be tested next week: Tues = #12, Thurs = #13, Fri. = #14.
