Spanish II 01-11-08

  • We reviewed the Present Progressive and then corrected our homework.
  • Preterite Partner Orals! The classes did a really great job on these rotating partner questions and answers today. Students were both peer assessed and teacher assessed, earning points for accuracy as well as participation. Several students commented that it turned out to be much easier than they had feared, and I know that is because they had prepared so well.
  • Giving and following directions partner oral practice 1: Using a map of Tigard High, one student asked the other for directions from our classroom to one of the locations indicated on their handouts. The partner then answered incorporating at least 5 different commands and 2 points of reference. The first partner then confirmed his/her understanding by restating the instructions.
  • Giving and following directions partner oral practice 2: Referring to a list of locales in the town of Tigard, one student asked the other for directions from THS to one of the locations on their handouts. The same criteria as in practice one: The partner then answered incorporating at least 5 different commands and 2 points of reference. The first partner then confirmed his/her understanding by restating the instructions.
  • Tarea:
    1. Study for 3B vocabulary recognition test on Monday.
    2. Keep reviewing towards the final exam.
