martes, el tres de noviembre del dos mil nueve

Español Uno (1):

Today’s Agenda:

1. Practice spelling unknown words using our knowledge of Spanish phonetics:
--pañ-ue-los
--al-go-dón
--ca-rre-te-ra
--es-pan-ta-pá-ja-ros
--e-qui-li-bri-sta

2. Listen to our new song of the week: “Vida más simple.” Nice job catching the first two missing words: sólo, mi.

3. (1st hour only): Student senator update.

4. Review 2-5 in the workbook. Remember that while you don’t want to overuse our personal pronouns (I, you, he, she, we, they, y’all), they are nonetheless very important words to know!

5. Practice our chapter two gestures, establishing new gestures for:
--a ver….
--aquí está
--allí está
--allá está
--es para mí
--es para ti
--enseña
--aprende
--empieza
--termina
--usa la calculadora
--rompe los lápices

6. Practice our essential 30 questions, defining the last two questions:
--¿A qué hora empieza la clase de español?
------La clase de español empieza a las....
--¿A qué hora termina la clase de español?
------La clase de español termina a las....

7. (2nd hour only): Practice all 30 questions with a partner.

8. Finish yesterday’s Dice Game in table groups.

Homework: Make sure your Dice Game is accurate for tomorrow.
