Español I
el 4 de mayo de 2010


1. Warm-up: Workbook pages 49-50, Ex. 3A-1 & 2: Practicing our new food vocabulary.

2. More vocabulary practice:
(A) Correcting our vocabulary lists completed as homework - practiced pronunciation.
(B) What's missing (¿Qué falta?): : using the clip art flashcards of our vocabulary - Students reviewed the items, then identified which one I had removed from the set shown under the document camera.

3. LOS VERBOS: We reviewed how -ER verbs are conjugated (how they change forms for different people doing the action) AND added -IR verbs. VERY SIMILAR but DIFFERENT IN NOSOTROS/AS AND VOSOTROS/AS.
(A) Packet of Regular Verbs - cover is an explanation of all 3 "families" of verbs (-ar, -er, -ir), followed by flash cards of their forms.
(B) Verb grid: We filled in the INFINITIVO in Spanish & English (dictionary form) of FIVE -er verbs and FIVE -IR verbs. We did ALL of the forms for APRENDER and ABRIR. We completed the YO (I) and Tú (You) forms for all TEN verbs.

4. We made our PLANS for our 5 de mayo día cultural tomorrow, with several people signing up to either bring something and/or help out with clean-up.
