Español II 02-25-08

• Brief independent review while I checked-in the homework, and then the students took the study quiz over 15 of the vocabulary item. Afterwards corrected it in class, and then turned them in.
• We went over the homework and corrected it: Vocabulary, sentence writing and stem-changing verbs: meanings and conjugations.
• We completed 3 of the listening comprehension activities in the WAVA workbook: Activities 5, 6 & 7 (pages 9 & 10).
• Period 2 saw the GramActiva DVD about Affirmative and Negative words (adjectives and adverbs). Period 4 – we quickly went over them on page 31.
• Both periods: I distributed a grammar review/practice packet over STEM-CHANGING VERBS, and introduced how to use it as a study guide.
• Tarea:
1. Study the Stem-changing Verbs packet, highlighting the key ideas in study points 1, 2, 3 and 4. Then complete the conjugations for the verbs in the practice immediately following study point number 4. Remember to refer back to the lists of verbs to verify which type of stem-changer each verb is.
2. Practice the Affirmative/Negative words by completing Actividad 19, page 31 (textbook). You only have to list the answers, rather than writing out the whole paragraph.
3. Study quiz = Stem-changing verbs (white list and/or page 27). Be able to conjugate the infinitive with a given subject pronoun (like tonight’s homework in the packet) AS WELL AS being able to write the Spanish equivalent to an English form of one of the given verbs.

Examples:

Part I - Dormir (ella) = Duerme

Part II – They play games = Ellos juegan
