Review of gustar, encantar, interesar, importar & aburrir ("backwards" verbs), plus poder (o-ue), querer (e->ie.)
Here is a very good explanation of "backwards" verbs:
http://www.drlemon.com/Grammar/Gustar.html
The illustrated me gusta, etc. trifold plus the Monday's count as a presentational writing formative & an interpersonal speaking summative assessment.
Thu., Jan. 18 - Sra. Esten is out
Homework: Leave your Me gusta trifolds in the Spanish II folder in the plastic bin in the back corner of the room (under the right side of the corkboard.) Make sure your name is on it!
In class:
1. Become a millionaire http://www.quia.com/rr/92306.html?AP_rand=1607007599&playHTML=1
2. Work on your own, but you may use notes, on this practice quiz. You may take it two times in class today. Quia will automatically send me both of your scores and I will put the better of the two in gradebook. The quiz will expire at 3:00 on Monday (for absent students.)
http://www.quia.com/quiz/4960922.html
The Quia activity, along with the trifold, counts as a presentational writing assessment.
3. Complete this gustar practice: http://www.indiana.edu/~call/ejercicios/prac_gustar01.htm
Diacríticos (at the top) means accent marks. Verificar (at the bottom) means check (your answers.) Pay attention to the feedback you get.
4. Complete this activity with querer (to want things/to love people & pets) and poder (to be able to/can):
http://tinyurl.com/PracPoderQuerer
We will review these next class.
Mon., Jan. 22:
In class:
1. Conversation using your trifold as a foundation. I will listen in and give you simple 1-4 score (this counts as an interpersonal speaking assessment.)
2. Review activity #4 from last class.
(For '18-19, add extra day for unit, as barely touched on #3, below & did not have time for #s 4 & 5. Also add Julieta Venegas' Quieres salir conmigo.)
3. a. Write four original sentences.
b. Use querer (e->ie) + infinitivo AND poder (o->ue) + infinitivo in each. Remember, these are stem-changing ("boot") verbs. Look up their conjugations if you need to.
Example: I want to go to the movies but I can't find money.
Quiero ir al cine pero* no puedo encontrar dinero.
*Don't use pero in every sentence, you know other conjunctions such as y, o, excepto, entonces/después... )
c. When you have finished, line up facing each other and take turns asking and answering, ¿Qué quieres?
4. We'll split up into teams and collaboratively write a story using gustar, encantar, aburrir ("backwards" verbs) & poder, querer and a random selection of chores/pastimes (from our Quizlet set.)
5. Time permitting, we'll listen to a song and complete the related activity with gustar. Refer to the grid of nine women and write which ones are mentioned in the song. I'll play it while you listen and write. http://spanishvocabularytest.blogspot.com/2015/11/spanish-vocabulary-test-el-verbo-gustar.html
What is he saying? Does he like all of these women? Do they like him?

SPELLING & STEM-CHANGERS IN THE PRETERITE - OPEN THIS STUDY GUIDE IN NOTEABILITY:
https://tinyurl.com/PretSpellingChangers
3. We will discuss "-car, -gar, -zars." You will take notes and then complete this practice: https://www.proprofs.com/quiz-school/story.php?title=preterite-car-gar-zar-ending-verbs
How did you do? Do you have questions?
4. Take notes as we discuss stem-changers/spelling-changers ("sandals.")
HOMEWORK - SUMMATIVE - DUE WED., MAY 9 - AIR DROP THESE AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS:
Choose at least ten different verbs that are "semi-irregular" in the preterite from
PretSpellingChangers and write an original mini-story using them in the preterite (at least ten sentences). You don't have to use the verbs only in the "persons" in which they are irregular. Make sure that it is a story, not just a list of sentences. If you would like to have the opportunity for a 4, you must record yourself reading the story. Pay special attention to your vowel sounds and make sure that you hit the accented syllable hardest (e.g. HAblo=I speak, but haBLÓ=he/she/Ud. spoke.)
Wed., May 9 - half-day:
1. http://tinyurl.com/Stem-changerPractice
Hand in your homework.
2. We will split into teams and you will act out one of the verbs from the study guide, above. Using one iPad per team, you will write the verb that is being acted out. You must write it in the form in which it is irregular (e.g. the yo form for "-car, -gar, -zars" and 3rd person for the others.) You will show me your answer, do not let the other teams see it, as if you spell it wrong they will have a chance to "steal" your points!

THU., MAY 17 - EXAM - COMMUNICATING ABOUT THE PAST USING SEMI-IRREGULAR VERBS IN THE PRETERITE (stem & spelling changers - with 1/4 index card "chuleta")
Mon., May 21:
Starter: With a partner, or solo, play this "all preterite" game.
https://www.quia.com/cb/384979.html?AP_rand=1431304955&playHTML=1
In class:
1. We will divide into groups of 3-4. Using the online imperfect tense resources, above, you and your teammates will write up a summary of the usage and conjugation of the imperfect tense. Each team will write its summary on the board. We'll combine them to make a mini-learning guide for the imperfect tense.
2. We'll have a bit of imperfect practice: https://conjuguemos.com/verb/119
3. We'll discuss the homework (pdf below.) We'll have time for clarifying questions and you may have time to begin to work on it.
Homework, due Wed., May 23:
Write and illustrate 10 sentences in the imperfect tense describing what you believed when you were little:
Cuando era pequeña creía - tarea.pdf
These sentences are about you personally, as a little kid, so I expect original sentences. It's a formative however, I strongly recommend that you actually do this assignment - it's good practice!
You must do these on paper (or print them, if you do them online), but you don't have to draw. You may cut pictures from print resources or use free clipart (no watermarks, cite your sources.) I have plenty of colored paper and magazines, please let me know if you would like some.
Wed., May 23:
Starter:
We will break into two teams and you will each do half of the attached imperfect practice (odd/evens, more or less.) https://mfljones.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/l7-the-imperfect-tense-worksheet.pdf
In class:
1. Hand in your homework. Volunteers will write on the board a sentence or two from the homework. You'll earn puntos for writing your sentences and for helping to make corrections.
2. If we did not get to #2, above, last class, we will do so today.
3. Play flyswatter with the adverbs that often are imperfect indicators. These are on your handout, which is also linked, above.
4. We'll begin to learn how to make comparisons in Spanish (see handout and/or link, above.)
FINAL EXAM REVIEW ON YOUR OWN
I suggest that you review the following:
A. verb blast verbs (irregular & stem-changing verbs in the present tense)
B. ser v. estar (& ser vocab. - particularly descriptions & estar vocab. - particularly location prepositions)
SER = DOCTOR (description, occupation, characteristics, time/date, origin, race/relationship/religion)
Remember to use ser with things that are permanent (origin/race), hard to change (description/occupation/characteristics/relationships/religion) or you can't change (time/date.)
StudyGuide-seryadjectivos.docReligionsOccupationsSer.doc
ESTAR = PLACE (position/location, action*, condition/emotion)
*Present progressive, e.g. Estoy escribiendo. I am writing.
C. chores & tener que + infinitive to express what you have to do (and maybe where some chores are done, rooms at home, school, etc.)
D. pastimes (vacations, travel, what you do in your spare time)
Here's a long quizlet, you may wish to copy it to your account and delete the ones you don't think you'll ever use (Irish dance?)
http://quizlet.com/35213959/pasatiempos-flash-cards/
E. health vocab. (body parts, how to express what hurts, hospital/pharm. vocab.)CuerpoIdiomsTenerStudyGuide.doc
F. food (& related verbs like to cook, to prepare, etc.)
G. preterite v. imperfect (conjugation, esp. practice your cucaracha verbs, & usage.)
