3/4:
We had two things going on today. We started the day studying the vocabulary words and structures in small groups. Some people used whiteboards and others spoke. We formed a 14 bracket, double elimination, tournament. While you were still in the running you were studying your words. Once you lost you paired up with the next person to lose and did the following activity that we will work on tomorrow.
Write a dialogue between you and your partner at a restaurant in Mexico. Include a waiter or waitress in this scene. I said scene because you will be writing this in play format. Paige and Kayla will work together. If one is not here then come see me to find out who your partner(s) will be. To make up today's points you will have to do something Spanish related outside of class and prove that you did it.
Example:
Pedro: Marcos, ¿Has probado el flan?
Marcos: No, no lo he probado, ¿Con qué se hace?
etc. etc. etc...
The idea is to use as many of the vocabulary words you can. Make sure to underline or highlight the words you use. We will be working on this and presenting them tomorrow.
Lisha, Jacee, Carrie, Nathan, and Jacob are still in the running for the class championship of this unit's vocabulary.

Began the testing process for the unit on medicine and health. We will finish the writing section tomorrow and begin the oral interviews. We will take as much time as needed for the next few days in order to finish the testing process. We will be working on next chapter's vocabulary as well as doing a small listening activity while we all do our individual speaking parts.
If you were gone you need to schedule a time to make up the test with me. Please write your name on my calendar on the wall behind my desk. Put your name on the date you are coming and make sure you include the time and reason you are coming.

3/4:
Went over the homework from Friday as an entry activity. Took turn answering the two questions: "¿Con qué se hace?" and ¿Has probado? We answered using D.O.P.'s in the second question.
After, we did an individual challenge. Head to head using the unit's vocab.
If you were gone, you need to turn in your homework and study the flashcards for 20 minutes.
2:
Reviewed for the test. Check previous blogs for any notes or questions you might have.

3/4:
Played a challenge. We did the grab game. Cut out flashcards, got a partner from a different team and placed the cards on the two desks (Picture/English side up). I then said the Spanish word and the first to grab it with their pen kept the flashcard and the winner was the person with the most flashcards at the end of the game. If you were gone, you need to study your flashcards in my classroom ten minutes before school starts.

Reviewed for test on Tuesday. Covered pages 300-303 1-9 as a class. We took turns speaking through all the activities in those sections of the book, as a class. If you were gone you need to write out 1-9 and turn in.

3/4:
We worked with the vocabulary words from our flashcards. We formed two circles (one inner and one outer) of seven people. The inside taught their words and the outsider circle used the whiteboards to write draw the words (when possible, if not they translated) The second round they spelled the words correctly.
Homework is to write what is in the following dishes: guacamole, chiles rellenos, flan, tacos, enchiladas, un pastel.
Worked with “se hace, se hacen”
If you were gone you need to do the homework assignment as well as study your flashcards for at least 20 minutes.
2:
With partners we finished the speaking parts from 288-289 and 292-293. We then did the finished the written questions without a partner for those same pages. We turned in 5-7 and 11-14. If you were gone you need to check out a book and do 1-14 on those pages and turn in the same written sections. These are critical for the test on Tuesday the 9th of December.
We then continued in a whole group activity, using the book. I drew names randomly and those people had to do the part from the book out loud as the class followed along. We started on 299 and finished at 300 #3.
If you were gone you need to write all of the conversations out and complete the activities up to number 3 and turn in.

2: With a partner we wrote a dialogue about how the two of you were feeling bad. Identified what was wrong with both of you and gave some good medical advice about how to feel better. If you were gone, you need to write your own dialogue.
We acted out the dialogues and answered questions, as a class, about each.
