lunes, el diez de septiembre

Spanish I:

• Students had a practice vocab quiz for Etapa Preliminar. We went over the differences between spelling mistakes that will be allowed and not marked wrong, and mistakes that are grammar mistakes, like making something masculine or femenine, and using the correct endings for verbs.
• We began to review the first chapter Etapa Preliminar:

1. Greetings
2. Where Spanish is spoken
3. Formal versus informal, for asking someone their name

            ¿Cómo te llamas? = What is your name? (familiar, used with family and friends)
            ¿Cómo se llama? = What is your name? (formal, used with people you don't know or to
                                             show respect)
    4. Sounds of the Spanish alphabet

         H = is silent
         C/G are hard sounds if followed by a, o, and u (casa, como, cual, gato, gordo, guapo)
         C/G are soft sounds if followed by e and i (cero, cien, general, gigante)
    5. How to say the date in Spanish:
                Hoy es lunes, el diez de septiembre.
