¡Hola estudiantes! Lo siento, pero mi hija todavía está enferma. Si no terminaste tu carta a tu pen-pal, por favor, termínala hoy. (Hi students! I’m sorry, but my daughter is still sick. If you didn’t finish your pen pal letter, please finish it today)
1. Primero, Uds. tienen que conjugar los verbos al otro lado de esta hoja de papel en el pretérito. Después, van a trabajar con un amigo a escribir un súper-mini-diálogo. Tienen que escribirlo y memorizarlo para lunes. El lunes, van a presentar los diálogos para la clase. (First, you-all have to conjugate the verbs on the other side of this page in the preterite tense. Then, you are going to work with a friend to write a super short dialog. You have to write it and memorize it for Monday.)
2. Uds. TIENEN QUE trabajar con la persona que digo aquí. Si dos personas están ausentes, sus “partners” pueden trabajar juntos. Si una persona está ausente, su “partner” puede trabajar con el “swing man.” ¡Yo sé quién está ausente! (You-all MUST work with the person I say here. If two people are absent, their partners can work together. If one person is absent, their partner can work with the “swing man.” I will know who is absent, so no messing with partners!)

6/1 - Oops, I was wrong. Also, quiz tomorrow
First of all, I was looking for a study sheet to post here to explain the preterite verb endings. When I found one, I realized that I had taught the vosotros form of -er and -ir verbs incorrectly. As my students know, vosotros is only used in Spain, and is often not taught (as was the case when I was in school). I had to look up the form, and I wrote it down wrong. I apologize and I will explain this in class tomorrow.
The -er/-ir vosotros verb ending in the preterite tense is -isteis.
Back to today,
1. Go over verb conjugations
2. -ar preterite practice
3. Dia de los Tres Reyes Magos (text p228), we read and understood, then students had to translate one of the two children's letters from the book.
La tarea: Study for quiz tomorrow on preterite verb endings. You can find the endings here
