Los números/Numbers

Today we explored numbers in both of our classes.

BEGINNERS:

Beginners continued practicing colors and we learned some basic cardinal numbers (1-12).

Please have your students practice numbers 1-15 (or if they are very ambitious, go ahead and have them learn up to 20). You can do this by watching the videos below, using this interactive link, or simply going over page 9 in your activity book (Rose Thomas).

Notice that after 15, numbers 16-19 are a combination of previously learned numbers with minor spelling variations: 16 = 10 y (and) 6 (dieciséis), 17 = 10 y (and) 7 (diecisiete) and so on.

VIDEO: 1-20 (Howcast):  typo: 19 should be diecinueve instead of diecenueve!




INTERMEDIATE SPANISH

Today some forgot their composition while others forgot their display items (or both).
I know however, that you are all going to be "super-ready" for class next time, right?

Please, go over numbers 1-100 at this site. You already know those numbers. Please practice to improve your pronunciation.

Also, go over page 12 in your activity book (Cynthia Downs) and watch the video below. Please pay attention to irregular: quinientos, setecientos and novecientos.
