• Warm-up: Practice saying your project before being assigned a group to perform to.
• Divided into groups of 4’s (a couple of 3’s) and then took turns presenting our project to the group. The group selected “una estrella” (a star) who then used the document camera to share his/her illustrations as s/he read to us. The group of people who came unprepared with a project to share sat in an area to work on their projects. Some of them finished today and turned their projects in, while the others will need to turn theirs in tomorrow.
• Big review of all three types of comparisons: We completed pages 177-179 in the comparisons packet (yellow), reviewing irregular comparisons along with comparisons of equality, inequality and the superlative degree.
• Reviewed our last lesson test against the answer key, while looking at the test booklet. There still is one person yet to take the test, but I didn’t want to wait any longer – we have our next lesson test on Wednesday! We had one person earn a perfect score, and several within a point, or two. ¡Buen trabajo, estudiantes!
• Both classes were able to watch some more of Ice Age, en español.
• Tarea:

1. WAVA workbook, pp. 21 & 22. Write out complete sentences for both exercises. On page 21 (1B- Act. 10) notice the details in the drawings for the information needed to answer the questions. This is good vocabulary practice. On page 22 (1B-Act. 11), read the information about all three clubs and then write up comparisons based on the information. The book wants you to use those of equality: tan ---como, tanto/a---como, tantos/as---como. However now that you have mastered all THREE types, write whatever is supported by the data in the charts.
2. If you go to Career Related Pathways tonight, bring me evidence you went and I’ll grant you up to 10 points extra credit.
