martes, el dieciséis de noviembre del dos mil diez

Today’s Agenda:

1. Quickly see if we can recall the countries & capitals from map #1. Remember that on our next cumulative exam (Monday, November 29th & Tuesday, November 30th), you will be accountable for maps 1 & 2.

2. Fill in more on our new blue verb packet. Today we filled in the sections for “-CAR, -GAR, -ZAR” verbs, as well as the definitions of our 17 irregular verbs.

3. Receive our new song of the week: “Tu amor.” Nice job catching the first three missing phrases: había, antes de, sed.

4. Establish some new gestures for ch. 3.

5. Quick check for homework completion, as well as submission of the signed story (“Ralph”) and our original illustrations from a few weeks ago. We’ll use your illustrations to practice telling stories.

Homework: Study your ch. 3 vocabulary! You need to be even more independent with the vocabulary for this chapter, as we will be spending a little less time on it, and need to dedicate more class time to some of our other essential skills (like practicing telling stories).
