Spanish II 09-08-08
• We reviewed asking and answering questions for ¿Eres tú? With …(Yo) soy.
• We reviewed adjective agreement = matching the gender (masculine/feminine) and number (singular/plural) of the noun with the adjective. And then we applied this to correcting our homework. We also reviewed word order = where does the “no” go if you’re saying I’m not artistic → the “NO” goes IN FRONT of SOY, (Yo no soy artistico/a)
• We reviewed the Spanish alphabet, and then used it dictating our names: first for our seat partners and then for the class.
• Using the pink conversation handout “Presentationes – Introductions” we interviewed a new partner, and then every partner presented their conversations to the class. This took a while with our big class (38!), but everyone did really well, and the class paid polite attention to the presenters. ¡Gracias, clase!
• We reviewed SUBJECT PRONOUNS, using flashcards of drawings of people referencing others. We took some notes on this, and we’ll do more tomorrow.
• Because our presentations ran so long, we are postponing our adjective quiz until tomorrow, and we are adding the 5 other adjectives at the top of the page. The same review game from Friday still works for all of these adjective.
• Tarea: Adjective quiz on ALL of the adjectives on page 3 – the 5 at the top of the page and the 13 in the ¿Recuerdas? Box on the lower right-hand side of the page. Be able to correctly spell the Spanish from the English equivalent.
e.g. Tall = alto, or alta
