Week of August 22

Spanish II students have reviewed with various activities and games and we are ready to continue our learning.  This week we are focusing on reflexive verbs (done to oneself...like lavarse, despertarse...), household chores, and commands (telling friends/family what to do or what not to do). 

Planned grades include a clicker quiz over vocabulary on Tuesday, a quiz over reflexive verbs and irregular commands (ask your student what the following words mean...ven, ten, sal, ve, sé, di, haz, pon) on Wednesday, and a quiz over negative commands on Friday.  See if your student can give you the following commands in Spanish:  go to the office, come to my house, tell the truth, don't go to the park, don't come late). Our first test will be early next week.

CDs to review each chapter are available to download on your computer if your student hasn't done that yet!
