Dear Parents of 5th and 6th Graders,
                       We shared our sentences about meals.  Students did a very good job with this assignment.  I will be calling parents of students who are not doing their homework assignments.  Fortunately, there are not many students who fall into this category.  On Friday, these two classes also received their first edition of a Spanish language newsletter/magazine created by Scholastic Magazines.  Sixth grade was able to take a copy home with them.  I hope they will read through the articles and do some of the activities on the activity page if they can.  I want this magazine to be fun for students and to become part of their reading for pleasure activities. The magazine is not difficult for beginning students.  We also discussed a list of Spanish commands.  I would like  the students to study the twenty or so words for a short quiz next week.  They will match the Spanish command with its English translation.

Fifth grade has a worksheet with basic commands in Spanish to complete. They will NOT be taking the same quiz the sixth graders are taking since we did not finish matching the command in Spanish with its English meaning.  They should try to complete the worksheet for next Friday.  They are familiar with most of the words already if they were enrolled in my class last year.
If you have any questions, please email me or leave a comment for me on this blog.
