• Continued with the very interesting cultural research project Power Point presentations today. As always, those not presenting took notes and filled-in the projects reactions form.
If you were absent (1) be sure to make up the listening participation points AND (2) get the questions/thematic vocabulary handout for the presentations you missed. You’ll want to get the notes from a classmate, so that you will be able to use them on the cultural final. Look for these in the “Hojas extra” letter holder on the table under the “La Tarea” bulleting board.

• Distributed a white packet over the subjunctive, which we used to review what we’ve gone over already. We went over the study notes on the first 2 pages (items numbered 1-4). Pay close attention to the examples and the ‘note’ sections.
• I reminded the class of the anuncio I wrote on the board yesterday about the UNIT 2 TEST next Wednesday (17th).
• Tarea:
1. Practice the 2B vocabulary (pg. 60) by creating 10 interesting sentences in Spanish, and then translating them to English.
2. Work in the Subjunctive Packet – Exercises A & B – note that B continues onto the following page. (pp.93 (bottom) – 95 (top).
