semana de 26 de enero y 02 de febrero 2016

Hola clase,

Another short weeks.  Remember 04 Feb is the YORP FEST and 05 Feb is take your child to work.


SO8

We will continue working on the Andalusia unit in preparation to YORP FEST on the 4th!  This week we will finish the powerpoints you are working on and you will be presenting your information.

We also are continuing with the clothing chapter.  The grammar concepts we will be working on are demonstrative adjectives, expect HW with this AND Preterite (past tense).  After the 14th of February we will begin our new theme: Chicano Civil Rights.  There will be an investigation you will be doing and a presentation so BE PREPARED!!!  on the right side of the post you have websites to help with the investigation, use them to make finding the information easier.  We will be watching a movie at the end of the unit, parent consent will be needed.  I will be passing the permission slips out in the next week or so.  If I do not have a slip, you will not be allowed to stay in the classroom to watch it.  Instead an alternative assignment will be given and an alternate test will be given.


SO9

We will finish Andalusia this week and work on the tiles in preparation for YORP FEST!
We will have a day in the computer lab to finish the powerpoints.  Once they are done, you will have to load them into the HW drop box on the portal and NO WHERE else!!!
Date to drop them in will be given in class.

We will continue with our trip vocabulary and future tense.  We will have a brief introduction to being in a café and we will begin working on different areas of being a tourist.  We will begin preparation for our next book:  El Sueño de Otto.  You will have vocabulary assignments, quizzes, etc.  We will be reading in class and have activities with the book.  We will begin the book the 2nd week in February.
