20 de mayo: Papel Picado y Piñatas.

one broken piñata

Yesterday we worked on present tense conjugations and made some papel picado decorations. During lunch we got to whack three piñatas.

If you wish, finish the assignment provided in class: conjugate any three -ar ending verbs of your choosing in the construction paper chart that you built for the verb hablar (to speak). As promised, there will be some extra candy for those of  you who bring their finished assignment to class on June 3

Enjoy the pictures below, have a great Memorial Day weekend and see you in a couple of weeks!

 ¡Hasta junio!

14 de mayo: Conjugations

Piñata de culebra

On Monday students were introduced to conjugating verbs in the present tense. 

Below you will find three videos that approach how to conjugate regular (following a pattern) -ar ending verbs such as the ones we learned in class (refer to photocopies handed in class if you need to)

Please, if you can,  take a look at all of them, even when some of them are a little bit longer than what we are used to in this class. You can also click here, here and here.

Thanks and see you next Monday.

Oh, I almost forgot, if  the weather cooperates we will finally get to break the piñatas during lunch.
