Spanish II 09-16-08

Spanish II 09-16-08
• Warm-up: Handout – Practice sentences in English to translate into Spanish – using the vocabulary, frequency expressions, nationality and descriptive adjectives and the verbs from this lesson. We went over the answers and I suggested students take notes of words they didn’t know right away and/or anything they didn’t do quickly and accurately when they were working on it.
• Verb practice: Activity 14, page 9. – Students wrote out the answers for themselves, and then we shared the verb forms by writing them on the white board and the Smart Board. Students then read the sentences aloud.
• Homework correction – Not everyone did page 5 in the workbook as I had suggested, so these people are asked to do it that way tonight: Label the pictures with the infinitive of the verb – in the left margin write the subject pronoun that would replace the peoples’ names, and THEN conjugate the verbs for each number.
• Page 13 – We went over the elements needed for the Poem project for Friday and I distributed a green ½ sheet of extra instructions.
• Tarea:
1. Redo Activity 6, page 5 in the WAVA.
2. Complete the vocabulary crossword in your white packet that has the vocabulary on the front page.
3. Write your rough draft of your poem.
