Monday, January 10th

Today Spanish 8 (8th grade):
  •  reviewed the study guide (posted last week under Spanish 8 study guide).
  • began their daily homework, which consists of writing down the date EVERY day (even weekends) until the day of the Term 2 final, which will be on Wednesday, January 19th. Students in Spanish 8 (and Spanish I) must write down the date every day, for a grade. Each sentence is worth 7 points, and students will lose 7 points for each day not completed. They will also lose points for spelling mistakes, missing accent marks, or words in the wrong order. Look at the vocabulary sheet below to see how to write the date.
Spanish I students in the Spanish 8 classes:Your final term is on Thursday, January 20th. You will NOT take the Spanish 8 exam. On Wednesday, January 19th, you will have quiet study time for your final.

Spanish Calendar vocabulary

Giving the date in Spanish:
1)    Remember that days of the week and months are NOT capitalized.
2)    The order of the words is different in Spanish:
                  The number comes first, and the month comes last.

Example:
Hoy es martes, el veintiseis de octubre = Today is Tuesday, October 26th.
(Write out the number word e.g. “veintiseis”, not 26)
