Sra. Carretero's 7th and 8th Grade Spanish Class

2/22/12

Hello everybody, today has been a difficult day, but we did our best taking care of each other, and having good memories about Stuart.  It is good we kept busy with the script, and more busy we’ll be making the movie, I cannot wait to see the results! You have to learn your lines pretty good, and I’m sure you will.  The exam is not until next Thursday, and you have an extra week for the Supersite.  Take good care of yourselves, eat properly, and sleep 7-8 hours at least.  Hasta mañana y un abrazo para todos.

Dear students, we won’t have the exam this Thursday, but the next one.  Let us hold our hands and pray for Stuart, Brookey, and their parents.  Brookey, yuo are not alone, you have all our love.  TE QUEREMOS.

IT is good to see you learn difficult material.  The possessive adjectives are complex, we only need to repeat them as many times as possible.  Next class I’m going to ask you lots of questions, and you’ll realize how easy they are.  Keep looking at my blog because I’m going to post a study guide.  The reading exercise we did today was practical and instructive.  Now you know how to infer from a reading and how to use the cognates and false cognates.  Some of your accents are very, very good,  keep practicing!

The game has been a success!! they get really involved and learned about the conjugations. The winners got chocolate.  We also had time to see the possessive adjectives again.  They are complex because we use the same for his, her, you formal and theirs, SU and SUS will take the place of all those in English.  Tomorrow will continue reviewing before the test.

¡¡¡¡¡FELIZ DÍA DE SAN VALENTÍN!!!!!

Congratulation to the winners!!!!! I’ll give you chocolate mañana.  (MORE CHOCOLATE¡¡¡¡¡¡¡).  The other class, we’ll finish the game and you’ll have your chocolates as well.  We need to review the possessive adjective because I realized today you made mistakes with  exercise number 2 from the book.  The other exercises were fine.  Remember that the adjectives MUST agree with the noun, if we have las comutadoras and we want to give to this noun an adjective, this need to agree with computadoras, that’s it, las computadoras son rojas or mi tía es mexicana.  We’ll review this too.  Thank you all for the chocolates and the cards, you really touched my heart.  HASTA MAÑANA
