This week, all Spanish classes started to review for their final exams. The seventh graders reviewed the days of the week, weather, and activity vocabulary for the Semester Exam. The eighth graders reviewed possessive adjectives, comparatives, and clothing vocabulary for the Final Exam. Tests will be on May 21 and 22. Students have received review packets. Homework will be assigned each night and we will reinforce those activities in class. Enjoy your weekend!

Spanish, April 17, 2015

It's been a busy week in Spanish. The seventh graders were tested on U3L2. Most students did very well, however, some may want to take advantage of the "Request to Retest" opportunity. The Request to Retest forms are due by Tuesday, April 21. Seventh grade students started a catalog project today that will continue over the next few weeks. Eighth grade students completed their Children's Books today, converting them from a Google slide show to Flipsnack software. Students wrote their stories in Spanish using vocabulary they have learned during the last two years.

The dates for the DGS Midterm for seventh graders, and the Final Exam for eighth graders will be Thursday, May 21 and Friday, May 22. The review for both grades will begin next week. A review packet and calendar will go home early next week to help students prepare for the tests.

It sounds like most people had a relaxing Spring Break. 

Seventh graders spent the shortened week reviewing for next Tuesday's (April 14) test on U3L2. Students reviewed how to correctly write the date, comparisons, numbers, and possessive adjectives. All students have a Study Guide and review document to help study over the weekend.

Eighth graders began writing a Children's Book in Spanish this week. They are using the vocabulary and concepts they have learned over the last two years to tell a simple story. Have a good weekend!
