Spanish II 03-04-08

Español II 03-04-08

  • Students turned in their homework and I checked it in while they watched the Video Historia (script on pages 48-49).
  • Students then moved to work with one of their “appointment partners”. They took turns reading the script aloud, and then helping each other figure out what it meant.
  • Each person then wrote out their answers to the comprehension questions about the story (Actividad 3, page 49) and we reviewed the answers together as a class.
  • Demonstrating with actions and using student models, I introduced the three types of comparisons:

(1) of equality (just as…as; just as much …as; just as many … as)

(2) of inequality: more/less …than, and

(3) superlatives (the most/least …of). See page 53.

· We practiced more of the comparisons of equality by watching the Gram Activa, and doing the first 2 pages of a new PACKET: Comparisons of Adjectives.

  • We corrected last night’s homework – a practice test from pages 42-43.
  • Period 2, due to 2nd period extension from forecasting, was able to watch a few minutes more of Ice Age, in Spanish.
  • Tarea:
