martes, el veinte de abril del dos mil diez

Today’s Agenda:

1. Finish with yesterday’s preterite verbs (regular, irregular & –car, –gar, –zar)

**Quick assessment of how well we know our –ar & –er/–ir preterite endings by memory. They should be PERFECTLY memorized by now. Remember, they’re just the tip of the iceberg. We also now have eight irregular preterite verbs on our blue, preterite packet. You’re accountable for them all!

2. Practice spelling unknown words using our knowledge of Spanish phonetics.

--que-ji-ca
--som-brí-o
--ca-la-ña
--au-di-ci-ón
