¡OYE! - If you still need to take the 2A test, make sure you schedule an appointment to do so before leaving class today.

1- Working with Partner B (and without opening the book!), brainstorm as many classroom items as you can think of. Everyone should be able to get somewhere between 10 and 20.

¿Cuántos carteles hay en la sala de clases?               Hay un cartel en la sala de clases.

¿Cuántas computadoras hay en la sala de clase?     Hay una computadora en la sala de clases.

Note:  Remember to change cuántos to cuántas when asking about an object that is feminine (la bandera, la puerta, etc).  Also remember to change un to una when describing a feminine object.


3- Working with Partner B, read through the caption on the bottom of p. 118. Next, ask and answer questions like the ones above using the pictures on p. 118 and 119. Each person should ask and answer at least six different questions.

6- Working in equipos, read all of your sentences aloud. A few students will be randomly selected to share their sentences with the class.

Homework:  Use 2B vocabulary to write five complete sentences about objects that you have in your house. Use tengo (I have) or no tengo (I don't have).   Note:  casa  =   house

            1. Tengo dos computadoras en mi casa.

            2. No tengo una bandera en mi casa.

            Etc.



Martes

Objective: use classroom vocabulary and prepositions to discuss classrooms and Videohistoria

1- Review 2A test as a class

2- Working with Partner A, complete the interactive labeling activity here

3- When finished, take turns reading the sentences under the picture on p. 119. Each sentence contains a preposition.

In English, words like under, on top of, next to, behind, in front of are prepositions, which indicate the location of objects. Prepositions answer the question "Where?," or in Spanish, "Dónde?"  Using the picture, see if you can correct guess the meaning of each preposition.

4- Review answers as a class and review prepositions vocabulary  (to indicate location on vocab sheet)

5- Watch Videohistoria

6- Work with Partner A and complete act. 3 and act. 4 on p. 123. Write answers in notebook or using notability. For act. 3, rewrite sentence using the correct subject at the beginning of the sentence.

Homework:  Add on to yesterday's homework, writing a second sentence for each item that indicates its location. Remember to use estar in addition to the correct prepositions for each item. Obviously, you will not be able to indicate the location of items that you do no have in your house.

            1. Tengo dos computadoras en mi casa. Están encima de mi escritorio.

            2. No tengo una bandera en mi casa.   [no preposition possible]


            Etc.



Miércoles

Objective: Use plurals articles (los / las) and prepositions to describe where objects are located

1- Receive 2B packet, work on last page (plurals, p. 79). Focus on how to make objects plural in Spanish (add -s or -es), definite articles (los / las), and indefinite articles (unos / unas). You may work with Partner A.

2- Focus on target language for today:  

¿Dónde están los libros?                                

Los libros están encima del escritorio.     

---     

¿Dónde están las banderas?

Las banderas están en la pared.

---

¿Dónde está la tele?

La tele está a la derecha de la bandera de los estados unidos.


There are a few things we need to notice about these questions and answers: 

* that the definite articles los and las are used in the question with dónde, not unos or unas

* that prepositions containing de (encima de, al lado de, a la derecha de, a la izquierda de, etc.) are written as "de la" in front of feminine nouns, but are written as del in front of masculine nouns. 

* that when the location of one object is being described with use está, but when the location of two or more objects is being described we use están

DEL   =   de + el 

El lápiz está encima de la mesa.       (la mesa = feminine)

El lápiz esta encima del pupitre.      (el pupitre = masculine) 


3- Complete act. 7 on p. 125 as a speaking exercise. 


Homework: p. 42 and p. 43 in 2B packet   [10 points}


Jueves

Objective: Use 2B vocabulary and prepositions to describe where objects are located

1- Review all 2B vocabulary as a class.  Using act. 7 on p. 125, play a guessing game in which one person states the location of an object and the other person guesses the object. Use the language below as a model. 

Está al lado de la silla.                         ¿Es la mochila? 
It's next to the chair.                             Is it the backpack? 

Está a la derecha del escritorio.         ¿Es la mesa? 
It's to the right of the desk.                   Is it the table? 


2- Work with Partner B, talk through act. 5 on p. 124. Review as class


3- Work with Partner B, write the correct answers for act. 10 on p. 49 of 2B packet *  
(not done in class)


4-  Work with Partner B and choose five classroom items to place on your desk. Arrange the items in a random order. Turning your back to your partner, take turns asking and answering questions about where the items are located and draw a picture based on your partner's answers. At the end of the activity you will compare your picture with the arrangement on your partner's desk.       (follow act. 9 on p. 126 as a model)



Homework: p. 45 in 2B packet   [10 points]



Viernes

   a.  choose el / la  or  los  /   las

   c.  combine de + el to create 'del' when necessary   (encima del pupitre)


2- Complete listening activity 5 on p. 41 of 2B packet (front page)

    (unos monos, un escritorio, cuatro bicicletas, una escuela y una isla) 

-  A written sentence to describe the location of each object in relationship to another object (at least four using different prepositions)

The woman is cutting the grass.
The man is washing the car.
The boy is taking out the trash.

Homework: p. 121 in 7A packet  


Jueves

Objective:  use pensar and querer to discuss plans and desires relating to clothing

1- Focus on the verb pensar. Note that pensar means "to think," but when it's used before another verb is means "to plan to."   For example:

Pienso ir a la fiesta.                            I plan on going to the party.

Ella piensa asistir la clase de inglés.   She plans on attending English class.

Pensamos visitar España.                   We plan to visit Spain.

Pienso llevar un impermeable.          I plan on wearing a raincoat.


NOTE:  All three stem-changing verbs from today's lesson (querer, pensar, preferir) can be immediately followed by another verb. This second verb will always be in the infinitive form. The verb pensar, when not followed by a second verb, simply means "to think." When followed by a second verb, it means "to plan to" (do whatever the second verb indicates). 


2 - Working with Partner A, read Gramática bo on p. 168. Then work together on completing act. 17 on p. 168. Complete #5 with a personal response. You may talk through this activity.

Pienso ir a REI. Quiero comprar una chaqueta nueva.

Pienso ir a Men's Wearhouse. Quiero comprar un traje.

Note: If you want to buy something for someone else you will use para in your sentence.

Quiero comprar una tableta para mi hermana.

5- Create a simple chart like the one below. Talk to three different people, asking the questions from above and filling in the correct information. Remember to change the verb forms from the yo form to the él / ella / Ud. form.

Quiere comprar...
