8th Grade

Today the 8th graders began preparing review materials for themselves for next Friday's quiz.  The quiz will cover numbers 200-1,000,000; Interrogatives (question words); Family Vocabulary; and Food & Beverage Vocabulary.  Each 8th grader chose 2 of these topics and created a review for them.  They chose a Quizlet, a Kahoot or a Google Doc.  Their classmates will have access to all of the reviews that were made in each class so they have dozens of options to help them study for Friday's quiz.  I'm excited for all of the options that they'll have to help them prepare!

7th Grade Recap of the Week

The 7th grade Spanish students took their first test this week.  Overall I am pleased with their scores! I know some of the scores are lower than what the students are used to getting, but I told them they should cut themselves some slack-they just took a test in another language! That in itself is impressive!
Next Friday, October 3 will be the next vocabulary quiz.  It will be on two sections from the Unit 1 Lesson 1 Vocab Sheet.  The quiz will be on ¨Talk about Activities¨ and ¨Snack Foods & Beverages¨
