Recording (on www.lingtlanguage.com/cklein02)
Record your voice in response to the prompts!
--Ch.3A Recording--La Ropa
--Ch.3B Recording--El Futuro
You'll need to read the prompt; then click on the white voice bubble on the right, allow your mic to be accessed, then record your response (remember to shoot for 30 seconds to 1 minute recordings). While recording, the bubble will flash orange. Click the bubble again to stop recording. Click the bubble again (it now should be solid orange) to playback your recording (playback has been a little buggy lately, but I can hear your recording on my end, not to worry). If you want to re-record, click the orange "X" in the upper right corner above the voice bubble. Finally click the "Submit" button in the lower right corner, enter your email address and your Spanish first name and given surname, then, you're done!

Evaluation activity:
Click here to go to the Chapter Three evaluation (Quiz, two attempts), (have your username and password ready) and thus finish up Chapter Three. Use paper and pencil to make a backup copy of your answers as you work through the evaluation, just in case the Internet goes down and you have to begin again.
Composition:
Click here to go to the Chapter 3 Composition(here, you must also have your username and password ready).
A note about the composition: You need to use proper accent marks. I highly suggest that you write the composition in a word processor and then cut and paste it into the textbox. There is no time limit however, so if you want to use the textbox itself with the "clickable" accent marks that the program affords you, you may, but beware; you may lose your work if the the Internet goes down. To learn how to insert accented vowels in MS Word click on my accent marks page. You will be evaluated based on this written Spanish rubric. Be sure to read the rubric prior to writing.
