• Warm-up: Practice vocabulary quiz – in preparation for tomorrow’s test. Green handout with the English: You write in the Spanish, and then check your answers against the list on page 40, OR your green vocabulary list, OR the list at http://www.quiz.com/jg/1160513list.html
• Homework review and correction:
1. Went over the Gustar constructions and regular verbs, while correcting the handout with drawings of people and activities.
2. Reviewed the Tener+que+infinitive to express what people HAVE TO D) – see separate blog entry on this – reporting what we found out from our in-class survey/autograph activity yesterday.
• We reviewed and practiced stem-changing verbs (quiz on Friday) by playing another Lotería game from the packet we did as homework earlier. We played game #7 (o-ue stem-changers).
• Partners got together with their “8:30 AM Appointment” and read aloud their paragraphs based on the items given in Activity 16, page 28: Stem-changer verb practice.
• We ended class with the “Tengo hambre” rap/song, practicing lots of special expressions using Tener as we use “to be” in English. Tengo hambre, tengo sed – see previous blog entry.
• Tarea:
1. Bring your WAVA workbook tomorrow for language lab listening activities.
2. Practice your vocabulary with Activity 1A-3 (page 9) in your pink packet.
