Buenos dias a todos,
This week in Spanish we will be learning more about and reviewing "er" and "ir" verbs, using and reviewing the "tener" expressions for hunger, thirst, to be in a hurry, have to do something, age, and feeling like doing something. We will also be studying irregular "er" and "ir" verbs that only change in the "yo" form of the verb. "Ir a" expressions give us the future tense and we do not have to conjugate after the verb "ir". We will also be practicing invitations, acceptances, and refusals of invitations so that means there will be new expressions for those ideas, but also some review of old expressions. We will be having a test this Friday 3-23 before we go to Washington on Chapter 4. It will include all of the above, plus the classes in a school places to go in a school, schedules, time, school supplies, adverbs of time like first, after, before, later, finally, early, late, this week, this weekend, day after tomorrow, next week, tomorrow, the days of the week, in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening, new verbs like to arrive, to return, to take a test, to open, to interrupt, to attend, to come, to go out, to eat, to drink, to put, to bring, to see, to know a fact, to do. Also how much, a few, many or a lot, indefinite articles such as a, an and some and cultural notes about Costa Rica.
The year is flying by so fast and we are still learning and studying so that we will be prepared for high school. This week we also have MCAS on Wednesday and Thursday so we will have shorten schedule of classes but still continuing to review. There will be no homework on the nights before the testing.
lunes noche: packet pg 37 ex 16, page 46 ex 21 and 22, page 47 ex 23.
martes noche: no tarea
miércoles noche: no tarea
jueves noche: pg 45 ex 19, pg 48 ex 25, 26 and a separate vocabulary review sheet.
We will be staying after school Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday of this week for extra help and retakes/makeups. Buena Suerte-Good luck

Work for the week of March 12, 2012
Buenas tardes a todos,
This week we are starting a new section of the chapter with more classrooms, more adverbs of time, invitations, acceptances, and refusals and a continuation of "to have" expressions, and the verbs "to come", "to go", and we will be introducing more "er" and "ir" verbs and how to conjugate them. The students already know the regular conjugations, but we will be studying some irregular verbs also.
On another note, Señorita Carvalho will be observed this week by her profesor de español from Rivier College in Nashua as part of her student teaching experience. The students seems to like her and I feel that she is doing a wonderful job with them! I will be out Wednesday and Thursday of this week because my husband is having major surgery and I need to be in Boston both days and perhaps Friday too. Señorita will take over the class, now that her profesor has observed her to do so.
Homework for this week will be:
lunes noche: make a list of places to go in a school from pages 132 and 133 in your 3rd section under the heading "Los Lugares" which you already have started. Then, in section 2, put the adverbs of time from pages 132 and 133 in there and add to them the list you have already started.
martes noche: new packet- page 36 ex 15, page 43 ex 14
miércoles noche: pagina 35 ejercicio 12, pagina 43 ejercicios 15 y16
jueves noche: pagina 40 ejercicio 22, pagina 44 ej 17, pagina 45 ej 20
We are on a push to finish up chapter 5 in our books before the end of the year. We are now finishing up Chapter 4. Our test for chapter 4 will be Friday of next week (March 23), because the following week will be going to Washington on Tuesday through Friday, the 27th thru the 30th. After that there will be 3 technology days the week of April 2nd, one full week after that and then we have April vacation. Time is running short because in between we have 5 MCAS shorten days and before you know it, it will be over. Thank you for your understanding if I have to give weekend homework to catch up. ¡Gracias!

Work for the week of March 5, 2012
Buenos dîas a todos,
I apologize for the late posting this week. We are still learning new vocabulary with "tener" expressions, the verb "venir" = to come, and are still working with mucho, cuanto, and poco.
We had a quiz on Tuesday, March 6th and will probably have another quiz if we are ready, if not, it will be on Monday the 12th. It will be on the above mentioned items, plus "a' and "some" with the school supply vocabulary, classes, and a review of time expressions.
This week's homework is:
lunes noche: calendario de marzo- 4 school supplies, 4 classes or rooms in a school, spanish numbers
martes noche: page 39 in the packet
miercoles noche: page 38 #5, page 41 # 10, translate all of #11 to English.
jueves noche: page 31 #3, page 33 #7, page 42 #'s 12 and 13 which should be the whole page.
I f we don't feel the students are ready for the quiz on Friday, we will have it on Monday.
¡Hasta lunes! Señora Schneider y Señorita Carvalho
