NOTE: Please see the attachments at the bottom of this page for extra credit opportunities and the eighth grade group project.

There really isn't much actual class time left. We have about 2 weeks of study remaining. It is important for the students to keep up and study hard, because there are not many chances left to recover from any low scores.

7th Grade Spanish 1

Quizzes & Tests

Ch. 3 test -Thursday, May 22

Be ready for pop quizzes on vocabulary at all times!

Homework

1. Practice speaking Spanish outside the classroom.
2. Memorize New ch. 3 vocabulary
3. Memorize question words!
4. Understand how to use gustar to indicate likes / dislikes
5. Understand how to use querer to say what you or others want or want to do.

We are in ch. 3 and continuing our study of likes and dislikes by learning how to talk about activities and to answer the question, ¿Qué te gusta hacer? As always, it is important that the students memorize the vocabulary as soon as possible, and practice using it.

Also in chapter 3, we will be learning to speak about the weather, talk about things we want to do, and to conjugate verbs. There is a lot of new material in this chapter and it is important that the students stay focused and take an active role in their own learning.
