I. Preterite Conjugation Flashcards game.
Each student got a set of:
A. Subject Pronouns
B. Verb Stems - Regular AND Spelling-changers for verbs ending in -car, gar, -zar
C. Preterite Verb Endings - Ar verbs
D. Preterite Verb Endings - Er & -Ir verbs
E. Paper clips
F. 3 Snack-size baggies: one each for (1)Subject pronouns (2)Verb stems (3)Verb endings

Students cut out and organized their cards while I checked-in homework.

We played 6 rounds of "sentence building" using our cards to form simple sentences in the preterite. WANT MORE VERB CONJUGATION PRACTICE? Go to the web site www.conjuguemos.com and then log-in as a student. In the left-hand column of the next screen select "Spanish Verbs". Next select "Regular Preterite". I recommend you don't do the 5-Minute Timed Test to begin with, but once you're getting really good...GO FOR IT!

II. Homework Corrections: Workbook pp. 42 & 44 - vocabulary and PRETERITE - Double Check your YO spelling-changers on the bottom of page 44. Remember those "-car, -gar, -zar" verbs in yo.

III. Lotería de comida enlatada - Gracias por todas las donaciones de comida, We divided into teams and played "Canned Food Bingo". Thanks for all of the wonderful food donated to our classroom's Food Bank Barrel!

Tarea: HAVE A SAFE, RESTFUL AND WONDERFUL "Día de la acción de gracias" - I hope you get to spend time with those who love you and come back ready to work hard next week!
