Happy Wednesday!
3rd grade: On Monday, we reviewed numbers 0-30, and learned the similarities and differences between the Mayan calendar and our own. We will have a short quiz on the numbers on Thursday. It will be a five question quiz in which I say the number in Spanish, and the students write down the digits. For example, if I say "catorce," the students would write 14 on their paper. We will then begin talking about different cultural activities that we enjoy doing. Workbook page 38 should also be completed by Thursday.
4th grade: On Tuesday, we learned how to ask and answer the question, "¿Adónde vas de vacaciones?" (Where do you go on vacation?). We also discussed different vacation locations, and enjoyed poking a little bit of fun at Sra. Barksdale's drawings (She is NO Mrs. Wuerfel!) :) We will delve deeper into the subject of vacations in the coming classes. Workbook page 39 was assigned as homework, due Friday.
5th grade: On Tuesday, we finished up learning about how to tell time in Spanish. On Friday, we will have a small quiz. It will be five questions. I will say the time in Spanish, and the students will write the digits and time of day. For example, if I were to say, "Son las tres y quince de la tarde," the students would write 3:15 pm on their papers. After the quiz, we will begin a study of school schedules and compare our own schedule to schools in El Salvador. All three classes were asked to study for the time quiz. 5B and 5C were also given a worksheet, due Friday, to assist them in studying. 5A has already completed the assignment.
Have a wonderful week and let me know if you have any questions!
