Spanish IV 11-20-07

Spanish IV 11-20-07

  • Took, and then corrected, the verb quiz for the verbs from the VERBs column on page 46. As there was some confusion as to which column was to be studied, we used this as a practice quiz.
  • Verified which verbs to study for the quiz tomorrow.
  • Reviewed SER versus ESTAR and HABER – Correcting activity 2-8.
  • Reviewed the Future, and the study points on pp. 55-56. We then practiced it further with activity 2-15, page 57.
  • We practiced using the probability feature of the future within a present context, What time must it be? It’s probably 12 PM

¿Qué hora sera?...Serán las doce de la tarde.

How old would she be? She’s probably 40.

¿Cuántos años tendrá ella?...Tendrá los 40.

  • We placed, ¿Quién será?...Who is it (probably)? Using our descriptors we wrote last night as homework. We played in groups of 4, then selected a “star” from the group to share with the whole class.
  • We went to BK Nelson’s site at Colby College, and read the poem, Amapola- and then using the poem, we practiced the future using an exercise based upon it. We completed the missing words from the poem, which just happened to be verbs in the future☺
  • Tarea:

Pruebita de verbos = Page 47 (conservar, contagiar, contaminar, dañar, deforestar, desechar)
