I can read and take away descriptions from a text from a student in a school in Latin America.
I can ask and answer questions about my teachers and classes.
Duolingo
Quizizz Practice (quick warm up)
When you have completed the Reading Assessment, hand it to me. Get a copy of the text, "S09 Noticiero - el costo de uniformes y útiles escolares en Nicaragua". You may use your resources (including laptop) for this reading. (The best resource is the school uniform vocabulary handout.)
Leave the reading in your notebook so we can review your answers this week.

I can write about about my teachers and classes.
Duolingo
Quizizz (Wayground) Practice: La hora y los horarios
When you've finished the writing
1) If you have not finished yesterday's news article, complete it first and keep it in your notes. The plan is to review it tomorrow.
2) Conjugarte "-er"
We'll go over this after our "rompehielos" in case you have any questions. I like these. Hope you'll think they're fun. Do two things here. Write the meaning of the verb in English above the verb (for example, above aprender, you'll write "to learn"), then complete the drawing by matching the correct form to its place in the chart.
We won't use "vosotros/vosotras" in this class class, but you should recognize the conjugations.
| Singular | Plural |
|---|---|
| yo como | nosotros / nosotras comemos |
| tú comes | (vosotros / vosotras *coméis*) |
| él / ella come | ellos / ellas comen |
| Singular | Plural |
|---|---|
| yo escribo | nosotros / nosotras escribimos |
