This week we will be practicing the present perfect.  You will be doing an in class writing assignment.  This will be one of your MYP grades as well.  You will be assigned a list of words you will be responsible for translating, give an example (could be a person, class, movie, etc) that helps you remember the word and you will also have to give the part of speech.  The part of speech is given in the dictionary when you look up the word.  You will be responsible for a section of these words and will have to bring them to class done because you will be sharing it with others in the class.  We will need these words for the reading.  You will be placing your definition and your examples on the portal, so you will be typing it and turning it in to the portal (NO WHERE ELSE THIS TIME) by October 1st at 1159 pm.  Please make sure you look up the correct version of the word.  The final product will then be compiled and placed on the portal for you to print at home or write in your cuaderno.

Our grammar topic for the week will be the future tense.  Be ready to come take notes.
