Español II 03-12-08

• We took Unit 1B exam today: The vocabulary and structures in the unit, in listening and reading comprehension as well as production exercises.

• After the test, students read “Una lengua extranjera” about a precocious dog named “Mono” who was taking a “foreign language”. Students answered comprehension questions about the short reading, and then answered personal information questions, too.

• Students received a HANDOUT with the list of classmates and their classroom names as well as a blank seating chart. The goal is to know everyone by the end of the quarter – el 10 de abril. A practice website is available at the URL on the top of the list. I won’t publish it here, so as to keep it a private site.

• I introduced the mini review lesson( pages 70 & 71) that leads into our new unit. Students are to study page 70, and know these few parts of the body and associated articles of clothing by Monday. I also distributed a white HANDOUT with all of the vocabulary for this mini lesson. Its URL is http://www.quia.com/jg/1215707list.html

• Tarea:
1. Make (and USE) study FLASH CARDS for the items on page 70: BOTH the parts of the body (in red) AND the associated clothing (in black).
2. KNOW the items on page 70 for a QUIZ on Monday.
