Spanish II 04-22

Español II 22 de abril de 2008

  • Period 2 started with sharing their revised weekend compositions – Mrs. Range wrote questions on the board to ask and answer with a partner using your composition.
  • Period 4 started with Actividad 14, page 111. Each student wrote out the questions indicated by the items under “Estudiante A”. Next, working with a partner, students asked their questions, and answered using the pictures from “Estudiante B” in the activity. Last, Mrs. Range called on various student pairs to “perform” their question and answer sets.
  • Mrs. Thurber-Brown checked in homework during the warm-ups in both periods.
  • Period 4 turned in their “Ensayos - ¿Qué hiciste?”
  • Both periods practiced the vocabulary and grammar from 2B using the listening comprehension activities in their WAVA workbooks. We did activities 7, 8 & 9.
  • We practiced “los números altos” – pink HANDOUT. The backside of the handout has a “timed practice” game, and we practiced saying the numbers aloud – trying to get farther in the list of random numbers for each of the consecutive timings.
  • We corrected the homework in the WAVA workbook, activity 10- page 42.
  • Period 2 also continued on with Activity 11 in the WAVA.
  • Distributed a STUDY GUIDE for the 2B test – tentatively scheduled for Friday, but we may decide to practice more and have the test the beginning of next week.
  • Tarea:
