Spanish II 12-10-07

Spanish II 12-10-07

Shortened class today – AM Assembly

  • We warmed-up by practicing the rhyme we memorized for today with our group partners.
  • We took the written part of the rhyme test.
  • We decided on the presentation order for the oral part of the test, and then presented. ¡Bien hecho, clases! You all did very well on this “prepositions of place” poem.
  • Partners oral: asking and answering questions describing where we actually live with our “dream houses” we drew last week. We did this we two different partners.
  • Introduced Unit 3, Lesson A vocabulary – HANDOUT = actually it is a two-page packet. The first page, front AND back, is the list that I used to create a Quia review site – note the URL in the upper right-hand corner to be able to play the matching, flashcards, word search and/or memory(concentration) games. The second page is a shortened version of the list – notice it has a different URL.
  • Announced the Spelling Vocabulary Test of the 3A vocabulary = December 18th.
  • Introduced the Tarea:
    1. Make flash cards of all of the new vocabulary items, using the 3A vocabulary list (1st sheet, front & back sides)
    2. Drill the first 6 items on the vocabulary sheet, (el banco – el supermercado) by writing the Spanish 8 times (be sure you are being accurate!)
    3. Green handout: Prepare tomorrow’s partner oral, by sketching in all of the furniture around the empty room into the room. Practice describing where it is located, so you can answer your partner’s questions tomorrow.
