Tarea

Purple Day:

Study column 1 verbs for quiz

Bring Mi Vida Loca handout

Crossword if you have not already turned it in

GOLD DAY:

Noun and Gender Worksheet with Temple on it (G1 only)

Finish Mi Vida Loca Packet for 1 and 2 (only G3 and G4)

Check Infinite Campus to see that grades are recorded correctly, if see a 0, you may be the paper with no name. Check so you know if you need to talk to me about your grade or not.

Grades Updates

All grades from this 9 weeks have been recorded in Infinite Campus. 

There are several failing grades likely for the following reasons:

NO NAMES I have a huge stack of papers with no names. Until I know who they belong to, I can't enter the grade, so you may have a zero! Check with me BY FRIDAY to claim them. The sooner it is claimed, the sooner I can change the grade.


MISSING WORK. If you are absent, I record it as a zero until you make up the work. If you missed a quiz, you have one week from the absence to make up the work. Before school, during lunch, or after school. Please schedule the make up quizzes! (We have had two so far: adjectives and ser, and the column 1 verbs)

Didn't do the work or didn't turn it in..... I do not take late work, so please do all homework on time and turn it in!

TeacherNet Home Trouble: Check and see if I recorded your grade for the poem, some of you may not have sent the poem into TeacherNet Homes correctly. If you show it to me BY FRIDAY, I will record the grade.

Binders: If you didn't have your binder in class when I did the binder check, you still need to show me the binder to get credit for it. It is an easy grade, so show me the binder/folder/notebook that has all the Spanish stuff in it.

Any questions can be sent to me at kelly.rottman@mccracken.kyschools.us or you may see me before or after school.

Homework

Homework: Finish the crossword puzzle over column 1 verbs. Study for verb quiz!

Other:

 Chi! Chi! Chi! Le! Le! Le! All 33 Chilean Miners are rescued after being trapped for over 2 months underground after the mine collapsed! We WILL be discussing this in class next week! Amazing and worth checking out! This is an incredible story and will go down in history. Truly incredible.

The full story and video can be found at:

http://abcnews.go.com/International/chile-mine-rescue-miners-emerge-president-sebastian-pinera/story?id=11874249 



We will also watch clips from 20/20 investigation next week and discuss the importance of tolerance,international cooperation, celebration of diversity AND similarities, and other lessons to learn from this miracle. This is a very big deal for Chile, and I think it is important to discuss world news that relates to our class.

Homework-Monday and Tuesday

Welcome back from Fall Break!

Tarea:

Ser and Adj. Agreement worksheet

hints:
if it ends in o, the adjective will need to end in o
if it ends in a, the adjective will need to end in a
if it ends in as, the adjective will need to end in as
if it ends in os, the adjective will need to end in os
on estudiante: it can be a guy or girl student, so the 2 answers would be 1 for a guy, one for a girl
on feliz, to make it plural felices
if it ends in e, it can be a guy or girl and to make it plural, end in es
Post questions here and Ill answer to help you!

Quiz on Ser and Adjectives. No verb boxes. No notes. I will expect you to know how to complete
yo _____ seria. (soy). I will give you a word bank for adjectives and you will just need to know how to change them to describe a guy, a girl, a group of guys, or a group of girls.

We will finish the pizza projects completely and start presenting on Friday/Monday. You will need your pictures completed and your 3 labels for adjectives. Try to get the sentences done so I can check them for you. That will let you fix any errors before you present. Also, if the sentences are done, you can start practicing the speaking portion before you do it in front of the class....

Study Column 1 Verbs. The quiz over them is Friday/Monday.
