1/18 - Sub Day
Sorry I wasn't here today, my daughter was sick and I had to stay home with her.
The plan from today:
Spanish 1 (per 6) will be working in their workbooks. Tell them the quiz is postponed until tomorrow. Many will need to get the workbooks from their lockers, so tell them as they walk in to go get them. Tell them to work first on the FLIPSIDE (they know what that means) (it’s the side of the workbook with a bar code on it). Do pages 93-94 and 95-96. Then in the regular side, they should do page 53 and 54. They should be able to finish by the end of the hour. I will check this tomorrow!!
Remember, vocab quiz tomorrow Spanish to English on fruits, vegetables, breads, drinks, and desserts.

1/13 - Vocabulario
1. Check for complete set of flashcards with Spanish on one side and pictures on the other. It seems many people did NOT use their time wisely during the oral exams, as very few had what they needed. Partial credit can be earned for showing me tomorrow.
2. Sort vocab. We sorted out the 13 vegetable words and 12 fruit words. We started working with only those vocab words and we practiced a few different ways.
3. Explain "Me gusta" and "Me gustan". Me gusta is used for liking singular items (ie. salad, lunch, pizza), Me gustan is used for plural items (sandwiches, strawberries). Students had to tell me something they like, they don't like, and that they love (Me encanta, Me encantan).
4. Text p. 135? Oral activity of saying what kids like and don't like.
La tarea: Make sure you have a full set of vocab flash cards for food items!!!!!

1/10 - Finish packet, oral exams, make blank flashcards
1. Finish going over packet. Keep the packet, because you will be seeing the questions and answers from the back page again!!!
2. Oral exams - Volunteers only. About 10 students volunteered. I decided to increase the time frame for extra credit to 90 seconds (up from a minute) and increase the total time to 3 minutes. I eliminated the Q&A so the project went down in value.
2. While orals were going on, students were cutting up paper to make at least 72 blank flashcards. Students MUST bring these blanks to class tomorrow, it will count as a homework assignment. If you choose to use index cards, you need to cut them in half, they will be too big if you use whole ones.
La tarea: finish making your flash cards. ALL STUDENTS MUST be ready to do the oral tomorrow. I will take volunteers and then start calling people.
