jueves, el veintiuno de octubre del dos mil diez

Announcement: Sorry I forgot to post after Thursday’s staff meeting!!!

Today’s Agenda:

1. Discuss reflexive verbs. Reflexive verbs are a type of verb that we will be learning about in chapter two. They often communicate “self.” You’ve already seen at least one common reflexive verb in Spanish 1:

me llamo……………………nos llamamos
te llamas…………………………………………
se llama……………………..se llaman

When we conjugate a reflexive verb, the reflexive pronoun (me, te, se, nos, se) goes out in front.

Three important details to keep in mind about reflexive verbs:
--The infinitive of a reflexive verb will end in se, such as levantarse or bañarse.
--When a verb is reflexive, you must use the reflexive pronouns (me, te, se, nos, se).
--Reflexive verbs are not a verb tense. Reflexive verbs can be put into any tense, using the appropriate verb endings. “Me, te, se, nos, se” do not communicate when the action occurred!

2. Listen to our song of the week: “Adiós.”

3. Finish writing our pink packet definitions and establish some Ch. 2 gestures.

4. Begin the homework.

Homework: 2-1, 2-2 (evens translated)
