lunes, el veinticinco de marzo

Spanish I:

• I passed out the study guides for 2.3, and went over it with the class. The test will be on Friday, April 12th. We will finish the chapter tomorrow, and review for it the week of April 8th. 
• Students needs to practice conjugating, ar, er, and ir verbs, as well as the new irregular verbs (hacer, conocer, and oír), the 5 questions they need to answer (on the study guide), and review the 2.3 vocabulary.

Grammar Notes:

• Students learned how to use the verb ir (to go) to talk about where they are going. Today they learned how to use it to talk about things they are going to do (in the very near future).

With a noun:

Yo voy a la escuela. = I am going to school.

Yo voy al gimnasio. (a + el = al) = I am going to the gym.

With a verb

Yo voy a comer. = I am going to eat.  You conjugate the first verb "ir" but not the second verb "comer"

Tú vas a estudiar. = You are going to study.

Nosotros vamos a beber agua. = We are going to drink water.

Personal "a":

Personal “a”

Whenever a person is the object of a verb, the personal “a” must be used before the verb, except when using the verb “tener”

Yo conozco a María. = I know María.
Yo oigo a María. = I hear María
Yo cuido a María.= I take care of María.
Yo hablo a María. = I speak to María.

Homework/Test:

• Study for the 2.3 test on April 12th.

3rd Grade Spanish:

• Students continued working on their number book.
• Those who finished began working on our next project: designing a city. Students will create a Spanish city, name it and everything in it.
