Spanish IV 10-28-08

Español IV
28 de octubre de 2008

• I showed photos of places of cultural interest in Spain that are indicated on our new partners’ handout. Then students used this handout to organize new conversation partners.

• While I checked in the homework, students began a new reading, Juan Bobo – a folk tale from Mexico, with their new “Rey Juan Carlos I” partner. After reading a passage, students are to underline the past tense verbs and identify which are preterite and imperfect. Students were expected to complete Parte I in class today.

• I reviewed common errors in the Cartas de Solicitud – see separate Blog entry.
Please make note of these and refer to them on future compositions to avoid a pattern of errors that get locked in your useage.

• Tarea:
1. Complete reading the story and indicating the preterite and imperfecto verbs used.
2. Complete both sets of comprehension questions for the story.
