semana de 31 de marzo

Hola clase y bienvenidos de regreso,

This is our last quarter together.  We still have work to do so be prepared.  For those of you who are taking EOCs beginning in May, remember you are still responsible for ALL work missed from class the day you are taking your exam.  It is like a field trip.  You will have exactly 1 week to make up any work missed due to your absence after that it will turn into a Z.  Do not come 2 weeks or a month later wanting to make up those assignments.

Now this week we are returning and you will have your 3rd quarter on the 2nd or 3rd of April, depending on which day I see you.  You are to use past blogs in order to help you study.

SO9

You are responsible for chapters 6A, 6B vocabulary, present perfect, direct and indirect object pronouns, preterite irregular and stem changing.  It will have reading comprehension section and a picture you will need to write a paragraph on just like we have done in class.  Below there are links to help you study the grammar and vocab.

la semana de 03 marzo de 2014

Hola clase,

SO8

This week we will continue with presentations and the movie Walkout.  You are responsible for studying the notes you have made for your quizzes.  Those of you in competitions, field trips etc.  who miss the movie you will have an alternate assignment so you can have credit for the quiz on the movie.  I will provide to you the day of the quiz or Monday morning tutoring.  Please make sure if you miss the movie you come to tutoring no later than 17 March to make it up.  I will provide homeroom time for you to come in remember AFTER 10 am if you have already met your reading goal.  When we finish with the movie we will review the comparatives and do some work with comparatives and begin the new chapter.  We will be working with communities and be creating one of your own.  This will prepare us for our vacation planning vocabulary as well.  We have a lot to cover in what is left of the year.  Remember your current event is due this week VENEZUELA.  You will also have the tertulia this week.  Your news article must be in Spanish as well as your summary.  Be ready.  I will place comparatives links and vocab info in next week's blog.


SO9

We have finished Gol II and the sports chapter.  We will have drills on direct and indirect objects as well as begin working with present perfect.  You will have present perfect drills next week.  I will be placing practice exercises and explanations later this week.  We will begin discussions of TV and movies and you will become critics and commentators of different programs we watch.  These will be done in tertulia style so be ready each class for the next 2 weeks.  We will have rotations so you may want to bring a towel since you will be working outside when you are not participating in the tertulia.  We will begin commentaries again.  Each night beginning 05 March you will need to watch a different type of TV program you decide what you like or not.  You should schedule 15 minutes each night or afternoon, morning to do this activity.  You will take notes on what you saw, what happened, what you liked and what you disliked.  Remember you are the critic.  Use your vocabulary you copied down with the sports vocabulary.  We will do this homework until the 20th of the month and then you will be turning it in.  It cannot be the same show each night.  I don't want to see family Guy or SpongeBob each entry.  I want you to diversify yourself.  15 mins each night!!!!

Your commentaries will take the place of your evento del momento!  

SO9    Below is a link that will take you to practice all you need for chapter 6B.  The present perfect, vocabulary, indirect object pronouns.  Start practicing.  It will help prepare you for the 9 week exam which will encompass direct, indirect objects, present perfect, irregular pretérito, and chapters 6A and 6B.
