miércoles, el ocho de diciembre del dos mil diez

Today’s Agenda:

1. Review the homework: 4-3, 4-4.

2. Listen to our song of the week: “Inolvidable.” Nice job catching the next three missing phrases: encontrar, se fue, me digo.

3. Finish filling in our irregular preterite verbs on our blue preterite verb packet. We filled in the forms of querer, venir, estar, tener, saber, caber, traer & conducir.

We discussed how some of these verbs change meanings in the preterite. The preterite is all about conveying ACTION.

--“quería” (s/he wanted)……………. “quiso” (s/he wanted & tried)
--“estaba” (s/he was)…………………. “estuvo” (s/he was…but it’s OVER)
--“tenía” (s/he had)……………………. “tuvo” (s/he had…but it’s OVER; s/he got (an idea))
--“sabía” (s/he knew)…………………. “supo” (s/he found out)
