1. Lectura: We read and then talked about the "Camino de Santiago" - the pilgrimage in northern Spain. I showed where it is on the map and told some more about its history. See pages 48-49 and write answers to Comprendiste? - the comprehension questions that follow.

2. Homework corrections and review of Preterite versus Imperfecto - Corrections of the Preterite verus Imperfect Tenses packet - Ex. A, B & D.

3. Progress Reports and writing SMART goals. We watched a You tube video, How to write a SMART Goal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmOS3dj9h0s and then talked about how this applies to goals for Spanish class. Homework is to write a goal, underlining and labeling each section as it applies to the SMART acronym:
Specific: What will you do and How will you do it? ; Measureable - use the data on your progress report and indicate at what % you will be by the end of the quarter; Attainable/Agreed to & Realistic - - you don't have to make yourself into a new person to achieve this goal; Time-bound = Has a definite deadline. We're making this the end of the quarter = April 12th.
