Spanish week of September 2

By Jennifer Burchill on 9/2/2008

Happy Tuesday! I hope everybody enjoyed their three day weekend.

There seems to be some confusion about my make up work policy this year. It is not punitive in nature, and is not extra work. To make up classwork missed during an absence students will write a brief essay in Spanish using the words we learned in class that day. Because of the nature of assignment, I am giving students up to one extra week beyond the school’s make up policy in order to provide adequate time to learn the new words. The essays are designed to make up the class discussions and students will also need to make up any other work they miss such as quizzes/tests.

Spanish week of August 25

By Jennifer Burchill on 8/25/2008

Last week students began following simple commands in Spanish and finding out about each other. We have already introduced approximately 30 new words and phrases in Spanish through those two activities. We will continue with the same format over the next few weeks until we have had a chance to learn about each student and their likes and dislikes.
