Dos tareas (para el lunes y martes)

There are two assignments for next class (MON/TUES)

1-  En your book:  Answer the question for your 8 animals Que opinas de (animal) y por que?  USE THE VERBS LIKE "GUSTAR"

EX:  Me chocan las serpientes porque ...
Next week there will be one more sentence that you will add to your book for each animal.  Then it is project time!  Make sure that you are taking the time to review your writing.  Check your verb conjugations, and the masc/fem - sing/pl endings to make sure that it all matches.  With writing, you have time to check your work.  With speaking you don't, so you need to do your best when you write so that it later transfers to your speaking.

2- On a sheet of paper, make a flag from a South American country (not Central).  We will use this to play an on-going game.  If you don't have your flag to begin with us on the first day, you will not be able to play because it won't be fair.

Tarea #3 (for Thurs/Fri)

worksheet #3 (in the packet, not the one that says #3, but the second page that says likes/dislikes expanded:  practice with the verbs that work like gustar


**Per. 2:  1- answer on the English article - Que es interesante del articulo?

3- study for vocab quiz for next class (everything on vocab sheet except for FIGURAS)

ex. for book:

El leon caza bien.
Los jaguares corren bien.

Tarea para viernes y lunes

You are continuing in your animal book.  Neither the grammar nor the sentence structure is difficult:  your goal is get as close to perfection as possible with  your verb conjugations, use of masculine/feminine/singular/plural and sentence structure while incorporating new vocabulary.

Continuing in your book with the first 8 animals:
1- On each picture, label at least 3 unique body parts
2- Write 2-3 complete sentences that answer the following questions:
      *Como es?
      *Donde vive?
      *Que come? (2nd Per. you can save this one until the next class)

Examples for how to answer in a complete sentence:
1-  El perro es bonito y leal.  Usualmente los perros viven en casas y a veces en una jaula.  Los perros comen la comida de perros y les gustan los huesos.

Tarea de libro (for Wed/Thurs)

You need to begin your animal book.  For now, you will be adding to this for homework.  Later, this will turn into a project that you will complete.  In the end, there will be 16 animals total in this book.  We are beginning with 8 animals right now.

For next class, you need to:
1- Create a book that has 18 pages (title page, space for 16 animals, and a back) you can decide if  each animal page is 1 or 2 pages.  I recommend one side for the name of the animal with a picture and labeled body parts, and the other side of the page for writing about each animal.

2- Title page (you choose your own title)

3- page numbers

4- Start with your first 8 animals.  You need to write the name of the animal and include a picture (draw, print, etc.).

Have fun!

Tarea #1

This packet is some reading practice incorporating vocab from the unit that we are about to begin:  animals, their body parts and their habitat.
