Español II
17 de octubre de 2008

• I reviewed “Stressed Possessive Adjectives” with the students. I encouraged them to take notes from mine on the white board. We practiced with examples in the room. We then reviewed the instructions over WAVA (workbook) Activity 13, page 34 and did a couple together. I told them we could roll this over to tomorrow, and to be sure they do a good job with it tonight.
• Test Review: white handout: Repaso 2-A.
1. Unscrambling mixed-up sentences,
2. Answering questions,
3. Translating sentences
4. Reflexive Verb conjugation practice.

• Listening Activity: Diagramming 8 people, 8 daily routine activities and 8 times of day. As I mentioned the individual’s name, what s/he does, and when s/he does it, the students connected the name with the drawing of the action and the clock face indicating the time of day. They’ll do the follow-up on the reverse tonight, writing about where various people find their grooming articles around the house. We reviewed the vocabulary for the grooming articles and the household furnishings.
• We reviewed what will be on tomorrow’s 2A Lesson Test and distributed a study guide – ½ sheet, green handout. Also a separate blog entry.
• Students practiced the meanings and conjugations of the reflexive verbs with their seat partners while I returned last week’s vocabulary and reflexive verb quizzes.
• Tarea:
1. WAVA (workbook) Activity 13, page 34
2. Reverse side of our diagramming listening activity today in class: writing about where various people find their grooming articles around the house.
3. Organize your homework packet 2A – study it while you do so! (See the separate blog entry, if you didn’t write down the list in class.)
4. TEST 2A tomorrow
