3rd and 4th grade Matching quiz this Thurs. 2/8/18

¡Hola! 

3^rd

The 3^rd graders just finished learning about school related words (Unit 3.2) and how to describe what they study at school and what materials they use in class.  You could ask them to tell you in Spanish what they study in the morning at school and a few things they use in class.    Now they are learning about celebrations, concerts, playing sports and playing instruments.  You can ask your child what the 2 different words in Spanish are for play (hint: one is for sports and the other for instruments!), and if they can tell you one thing they like to do after school (Me gusta…).  The students should have workbook pages up through 39 completed by now. 

The students have a matching quiz this Thurs. over the words in Unit 3.3.  You can ask the students to study the worksheet with pictures that I had the students write the Spanish words on yesterday.  Those will be the specific ones on the quiz.

4^th

4^th graders have been learning about what classes they like and what materials they use in class.  They also learned how to say what they like to do in their free time (Me gusta …)  They have a matching quiz this Thurs. (Vocab. 3.3) and they were given a sheet with pictures on Mon. which they put the Spanish word beside.  This would be good for them to study from.  Students should have up through p. 39 in their workbooks completed.

5^th

5^th graders have been learning about classes and how to say in Spanish which classes are their favorite, the materials they use in class, what they wear to school, and their teacher’s name.  They had a verb conjugation quiz a couple weeks ago.  They are also learning how to tell time in Spanish.  They will be doing a short quiz on time today in class. They should have up through p. 38 completed by next Tues. when we begin working on Unit 3.3.

Up-coming Test for 4th/3rd and Writing assignment for 5th

¡Hola!

The students have been preparing for their Spanish test tomorrow.  Hopefully you have seen their Spanish folders and the study guide the students completed in preparation for it.

3rd grade needs to know:  

https://quizlet.com/150466284/grade-3-vocabulary-13-los-amigos-flash-cards/

https://quizlet.com/151385423/grade-3-vocabulary-14-flash-cards/

4th grade needs to know the material from: 

https://quizlet.com/151387979/grade-4-vocabulary-13-flash-cards/

https://quizlet.com/151391674/grade-4-vocabulary-14-flash-cards/

5th grade is rewriting a letter in Spanish that we began in class last Tues.  The rewrite is due this Tues.   The final draft will be for following Tues.  This letter takes the place of a test for this material.


All grade levels will begin Unidad 2 (Unit 2) this week.  The students will be learning about where they live, their communities and the places and people found in their communities.  They will also learn about clothing and the rooms in their house.

For this material, all 4 quizlets are already posted for
Unidad 2 -- 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4  according to each grade level.

These numbers correspond to how the textbook/workbook divide the material.  They divide them into "semanas" or weeks.

For example, the workbook pages that the students will be working on from now until the end of the quarter are the following, so you can ask your student which "semana" they are on throughout the quarter.

Unidad 2:
Semana 1 - p. 19-21
Semana 2 - p. 22-24
Semana 3 - p. 25-27
Semana 4 - p. 28-30
Repaso - p. 31-32  (review)

¡Gracias!

Unidad 1, Semana 4 (Unit 1, Week 4) (Vocabulary 1.4)

Hola Padres,  (Hello Parents)

We will be finishing up Unit 1 in the next few Spanish classes.  We are currently working on Vocabulary 1.4 in quizlet, according to each grade.  Grades 3 and 4 will probably have a test on the 1.3 and 1.4 vocabulary content around the end of next week.  Grade 5 will be having a different sort of assessment due to the many breaks we've had on Fridays which have reduced our total number of Spanish classes last quarter and this quarter.  I'll send more information home later this week about the tests and 5th grade assessment.

Homework for this week:

3rd Grade: (Mon/Thurs)

p. 15A (Due Mon. Oct. 23)

rest of p. 14-16  (Due Thurs. Oct. 26)

4th Grade: (Mon/Thurs)

p. 15C, 16A (Due Mon. Oct. 23)

rest of p. 14-16 (Due Thurs. Oct. 26)

5th Grade: (Tues/Fri)

p. 12-13 (Due Tues. Oct. 24)

Clarification on p. 12 part A -- the students need to correct the punctuation.  Questions and exclamations have an up-side down question mark or exclamation mark at the beginning of the sentence in addition to the end of the sentence. There is no extra punctuation for declarative sentences.  

p. 13 part A - The students need to circle the cognates (any words that look similar to English). 

Part B - The students write sentences describing themselves using the guide given. 

Yo soy...  (I am...)     then, Yo tengo.... (I have...)

If your student has questions about the content, please encourage them to come see me during Lyceum.  Also, I continue to encourage the students to utilize quizlet for their vocab practice.  They would benefit from continuing to review past vocab lessons after they've learned their current vocab.

Remember to sort by:   ( "alphabetical", instead of "latest" )
