                                             Spanish Homework- Fifth Grade

I am so sorry for not including my fifth graders in my Spanish homework blog!  I apologize for that. 
Fifth graders will use the new classroom supplies' vocabulary in a sentence.  Use the color words we learned last year to describe each word.  Example:  El borrador es rosado.  La mochila es amarilla.  The words are:  borrador, mochila, lapiz, pizarron, pegadura, cuaderno, tijeras, colores, libro, papel.  Be careful to show agreement between the noun and adjective.  Nouns are feminine or masculine so the color word, the adjective, must also be feminine or masculine.  Colors you may use are: amarillo (amarilla with a feminine noun).  Feminine nouns usually end in "a."  Example:  La mochila is roja.  The colors not ending in "o" or "a" do not change unless the noun is plural.  Example:  Las tijeras son verdes.  Los colores son azules.  We will work on that agreement in number and gender more in class. 
I am requiring ten sentences, but encourage students to compose more than ten.  Ten sentences will qualify for an "A."  More than ten sentences will help you master Spanish  and will make me very very happy!  Thank you to students and parents who pointed out my oversight.  See you on Monday, September 9th, with your homework.
