Buenos dias a todos,
I hope that you all had a nice vacation and that you were all able to do the things that you wanted to do! Well, we are now going back to our regular routine and hopefully we won't have any more snow days to interrupt our studies. This week we will be starting part 2 of our chapter 4 on school and school supplies. We will be learning about some new verbs, both regular and irregular, some new expressions about time and inviting people to do things, and some new places to go. We will be continuing this plan next week also. We will be having a quiz on Thursday on the expressions of "tener" which are to be hungry, thirsty, to be in a hurry, to feel like, to have to, age, to have plans, and to be sleepy. The quiz will also be on the verb "venir" which means "to come" and know how to use it with our classes, such as Are you coming to math class?, When are you coming to Spanish class?, What time are you coming to gym? etc. We will also be making our schedules in Spanish, working with partners about school supplies, playing a group verb game, doing some listening activities, having some more cultural notes from the book, and making anew calendar for March at the end of the week.
Tarea por ésta semana:
lunes noche: paquete viejo - paginas 33 #7, 42 # 12 y 13
martes noche: paquete viejo - pagina 34 -this should finish off the packet. Collecting it this week. Also, make up 5 questions about your schedule on the back of the schedule using "venir" "tener" and "ser".
miércoles noche: "tener" "venir" worksheet. Not in the packet. ¡Estudien! Hay un examenctio mañana.
jueves noche: calendario de marzo - 8 places that you can visit. Use some new ones from the vocab!
Classwork in the book for students that are absent. Pagina 127 ejercicios 13, 14, 15 -lunes
Paginas 128 #17, 129 #18 (miercoles), and a new vocab list from pages 132 and 133 (jueves). New vocab is a list of places to go. Start a new page in your seccion 3 and label it "Lugares" = places. Then in seccion 2, find your list of "adverbos de tiempo" = adverbs of time and add on the new expressions from page 132 to that list. There are also some on page 133 in the yellow box at the bottom of the page.
Welcome back and let's have a "buena semana". Señora Schneider
Hopefully there will not be any delays this week and we will have school.

The week of January 21, 2013
Buenas tardes a todos,
Well, this week will be a fast week again after celebrating Martin Luther King day yesterday. Because of the snow last week, our schedule was a bit backed up, so we were not able to have the verb quiz on Friday the 18th like I wanted to do. However, we will be having a quiz tomorrow on conjugating "ar" verbs regular and irregular ones. You need to study the endings and which ones go with what pronouns. YOu also need to know what the verbs mean. For example, I will give tu with Nadar and you have to write nadas. Should be easy, if you study. This Friday the 25th, there will be another quiz on the verbs and adverbs of time in sentences, how to make sentences, how to answer questions, and how to conjugate the verbs. Next week, there will be a big test (examen grande) on chapter 3 and all of the above items plus adjectives, para, despues de, antes de, Texas and general cultural notes, the vocabulary of places like cinema, pool, gymnasium, etc, and weather expressions.
I will be staying for extra help Tuesday the 22, and Wednesday the 23 of this week and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week. Please come if you are having trouble. This is not going away and it is important to "get it", especially the verb conjugations.
This week we will also be making a verb list of all the verbs we have covered so far, doing listening activities, a whole class activity with adverbs of time and verbs, another activity with verbs and sentences that uses the whole class, a group game of verbs, writing an essay using photos, book work, sentence warm ups, and 2 quizzes. I think that's good!
La tarea por ésta semana es:
martes noches: pagina 25 ejercicio 14 y pagina 26 - toda la pagina. ¡Estudien por favor! See above.
miércoles noche: Take the "Con qué frecuencia" we worked on in class yesterday and choose ten (10) people and write a sentence about them on the back adding in extra items such as where, with whom, at what time, etc. this will be collected and graded.
jueves noche: pagina 28 en el paquete. !Estudien por favor! See above.
viernes noche: nothing written, however you should be studying chapter 3 for the test next week!
Hasta mañana, Señora Schneider
