                Classroom phrases

                 telling their phone numbers
                 asking others how they are doing
                 definite / indefinite articles
                 school items
                 subjects
                 using adjectives
                 describing themselves
                Food and beverages
                subjects and subject pronouns
                Noun - adjective agreement
                Conjugating of -ar ending verbs
                What are infinitives/
                What is a regular/ irregular verb?
                 the verb SER, tener, estar and many more regular verbs
                Culture: Mexico, Costa Rica, and all Latin american Countries.
We are now approaching the end of the last lesson before we are to take the mid-term. Because they are still trying to speak the language, we decided to do a presentation instead of a written test. These presentations must include the following:
            Introducing themselves
            Introducing others
            Describing themselves or describing others
            Research on a Latin-american country and making a 3 minute in Spanish about
            that country's facts and way of life

January 7th, we will be back and ready to work on Unit 3, Lessons 1 and 2 with a concentration on more spoken activities. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
