8th grade Spanish students did their last "Story Sequencing" activity in Spanish featuring "El Cuento: Los 3 Cerditos." They were also introduced to their Reader's Theatre rubric which will be the culminating project that will bring our Storytelling unit to a close. These story-skits will be a test grade. Students have been put into assigned groups and will perform one of the following:
* Hansel y Gretel
* Los Tres Osos y la niña (Goldilocks and the 3 Bears)
* Los Tres Cabras Gruff (The 3 Billy Goats Gruff)
* El Pollito Pequeño (Chicken Little)
7th grade Spanish students were introduced to their "Family Web" rubric which will be the culminating activity in lieu of a test. Students will choose 10 family members to write about in Spanish. One portion of this project has a written component and one is oral. Students will be asked to write/talk about their family members' names, ages, birthdays, likes/dislikes. They will use the following sentence starters/sentence structures:
* Mi __________ se llama... (My __________ 's name is...)
* Tiene _____ años... (He/she is _______ years old...)
* Su cumpleaños es el _____ de ______________... (His/her birthday is the ____ of _________)...
* Le gusta... (He/she likes...)
* No le gusta... (He/she does not like...)
6th grade Spanish students have continued working with seasons, weather, and the calendar. We have been taking vocabulary they have learned in elementary school and now using their prior knowledge to ease the transition to more complicated sentences. For example:
* En la primavera hace viento y en el otoño hace fresco.
* El lunes yo tengo la clase de español.
Students have been describing nature and the world around them by expanding on singular words to sentences.
