1. I introduced the concept of "esponjas" "sponges". These are short activities that I will post on the projector at the beginning of each class. Students will get their folders from the box in class, do the activity, we will discuss, and then return the folders to the box. I will grade esponjas once a week for participation grades.
2. A few minutes to review before the quiz, then the quiz! Trade and grade, but I will regrade.
3. We are starting our final review topic before getting into new material, verbs. First we are reviewing regular verbs, then on Thursday we will start on irregulars. I distributed a list of about 100 regular verbs and we discussed the best way to go about learning it. First, they eliminated verbs that they are sure they know. Then, they each chose 25 verbs that they think will be useful. In an effort to teach them good methods for studying vocabulary, I am requiring students to do one of two methods to work on this list. They either may make flashcards, or they can make a 4-column vocab list. For the 4-column list, they must fold their paper into 4 columns, then copy the Spanish vocab into the first column and the English translations into the second. Then fold over the columns so you are looking at the Spanish on the left, and a blank column on the right. Try to fill in the English, then unfold and check. Finally, fold over the paper so you are looking at the English and a blank column. Fill in the Spanish, unfold and check. Eash student must bring a set of flashcards or a filled 4-column list tomorrow. They should familiarize themselves with their verbs, but there is no quiz tomorrow.
La tarea: prepare flashcards or 4-column list.
