Hi guys!
Hoping you're enjoying your break, just wanted to remind you of two things:
1. Spanish exam, study 3-4 questions per night!
2. Don't forget about the fiesta coming up Thursday (Spanish I) or Friday (Spanish II)

Flashcards online
If you would like to do flashcards, but are too lazy to make them, you could go to:
www. conjuguemos.com
click on Spanish Vocab
click on Realidades (for example, the me gusta chapter is # 575)
Then click flashcards or play hangman, you can even print out a vocabulary sheet with english and Spanish on it, in case you missed the work.

2011-2012 Spanish!
Another school year is upon us! Hope the website can answer some of your questions and that anything you're still wondering about you can ask during class or email me (smithb@lakewoodps.org)
For Spanish I:
You'll need
-a 3 ring binder or folder with prongs used EXCLUSIVELY for Spanish to keep all of your notes and papers. Personally, I like these folders: 5 star stay put folder because you can used them for all of your years of Spanish and they are plastic and will hold up to quite a beating, they are only $2 at meijer. . But feel free to go with a binder or paper folder w/ prongs, those will be totally fine.
-a set of head phones or ear buds (unless you don't mind sharing ear wax, I will have head phones that are good for public use)
-Paper, Pencil, Pen
**If you want to help out, we could always use wipes to clean the headphones, tissue, and random props we can use in our skits and conversations (old clothes, hats, toys, etc. . . )
For Spanish II:
-Bring all of your old papers, unless you gave them to me to keep. They will really help if you still have them!
-Folder w/ prongs (see above for more detail)
-headphones/ear buds (unless you don't mind sharing ear wax, I will have head phones that are good for public use)
-paper, pencil, pen
**If you want to help out, we could always use wipes to clean the headphones, tissue, and random props we can use in our skits and conversations (old clothes, hats, toys, etc. . . )
Special note to Spanish II: There is a chance that if you work hard enough you could pass the placement test and get out of Spanish I at the HS for next year (if you're in 7th grade). I will be setting up tutoring sessions closer to the end of the school year to review for the test, stay tuned for further information. We will talk in class.

A Big Thanks!
Thank you so much to the parents who helped out with the Chicago trip! It was so much fun and it was so nice to see you all. It is so evident to me how much you care!
Again, thank you for your help with the fiestas, oral exam practice, and much much more! I am so thankful to have your students and to have been able to watch them grow and mature.
If you or your son or daughter are interested in one-on-one/group tutoring over the summer in the Spanish language, shoot me an email (smithb@lakewoodps.org) and we may be able to work something out!
¡Hasta el próximo año!

EXTRA CREDIT
Hola Amigos~
It's been one week of Spanish so far. . . What have you learned? Write me an inquiry (or question) in Spanish and then how you would respond to that, plus your favorite thing about Spanish class for 3 points extra credit added to your comic strip or 3 punches!
To post:
Look at the gray bar just below, in bright blue there should be "comment" click on that. Type in your response, type your name in that same box, in the pull down you can have it say anonymous (you've written your name in the post, so that's fine). Then click POST COMMENT. I will get a notification, if your message is school appropriate, I will approve it, and you will then see it appear.
