Buenas noches a todos,
This is the last week for studying chapter 3 and Texas. We will be having a chapter test starting on Wednesday and finishing up on Thursday 1-31. The test will include the "ar" verb conjugations, weather expressions, adverbs of time, the conjugations of the irregular verbs "ir" and "jugar", "gustar", how to change "a" to al, a la, a los, and a las in a sentence, places to go such as the gym, the park, the church, etc, cultural notes about Texas and general Latin American cultural notes, question words and responses to questions, and how to use the transition words of "para", después de, and antes de with our new verbs.You will also need to know about helping verbs such as gustar, tener que, querer, ir a, and necesitar and what to do when a verb follows it. Also, don't forget that you need to know the meanings of "leer", "comer", "hacer", "ser", "tener", "salir", "escribir", and "decir". This is a big chapter test, so please study!
We have been reviewing in multiple ways by playing verb battleship, doing warm up sentences and questions, doing whole class activities and writing down the responses, doing listening activities, working in the book, playing group verb games, and doing partner activities around the room. It has been a busy few weeks and hopefully they are ready to take this test. Please study!
La tarea por ésta semana es:
lunes noche: nada - we had MCAS testing and no classes.

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

Buenas noches clase,
I hope everyone had a nice weekend and is staying healthy during this cold and flu season. Last week, we learned how to conjugate regular "AR" verbs, the stem changing verb jugar = to play a sport, finished up the cultural notes on Texas from pages 78 and 79, had a quiz on Tuesday on gustar, querer, and Texas, started learning some new ar verbs and more vocabulary, learned some adverbs of time such as everyday, never, always, etc., reviewed and wrote down our weather expressions, did some listening activities, talked about helping verbs, and started a game of Scrabble with new country partners. It was a busy week and will continue to be so as we go on in our studies.
This week promises to be just as busy. We will be finishing our Scrabble game of verb conjugations, learning about the verb "IR" which means to go, finishing new partner assignments, using our new verb conjugations in various learning activities such as connect 4, battleship, group contests, and partner writing activities, and having a quiz on Friday after reviewing our weekly homework, having listening activities, and doing some speaking activities.
La tarea por ésta semana es:
lunes noche: en los paquetes, paginas 35 y 36 - todas las paginas
martes noche: paginas 31 y 32 - todas
miércoles noche: pagina 27
jueves noche: pagina 26 y estudien por el examen mañana -los verbos AR, Jugar, IR, Adverbos de tiempo y vocabulario nuevo - el baile, el ensayo, el gimnasio, etc. Paginas 94 y 95 en el libro.
Any Questions? ( Hay preguntas?) Let's talk tomorrow in class. Until then, ¡Hasta mañana! Señora S.

Buenas tardes a todos,
Well, it's been awhile since we have visited the activities in Spanish class. After we came back from the holiday break, we finished up with our holiday traditions in various hispanic countries, worked on our January calendars, read a holiday poem in Spanglish, played PONGA (bingo) and then brainstormed and started to learn some facts about Texas and the hispanic influence there.
This week we are back to normal routines and normal homework. We are starting off the week by finishing Texas culture, reviewing the verb querer (to want) and the verb gustar (to like), doing some listening activities, having a quiz on the verbs and nouns in the first part of chapter 3, and starting new vocabulary and new verbs. We will be learning to conjugate regular "AR" verbs, try to use them in our sentences with classwork and homework while talking about the weather and describe how often we do these activities. We will be practicing all of this material for quite awhile as these are concepts that are basic to Spanish.
Tarea por ésta semana es:
lunes noche: pagina 27 in old packet - last page to be completed before I collect it.
martes noche: paginas 94 y 95 en el libro. Vocabulario en seccion 3 y verbos en seccion 4 (AR)
miércoles noche: paquete nuevo- paginas 29 y 34
jueves noche: pagina 20 y pagina 25 ejercicios 12 y 13
viernes noche: nada
Stay well- many students and teachers have been out with terrible colds! Señora Schneider
