Hola estudiantes,

thank you so much for being an awesome group of students. I loved being able to teach middle school and high school together! I loved how willing you were to learn and watching things click when you understood something!
Thank you for your evaluations too! they are so helpful for me to make changes to my teaching style and be the best teacher I can be. You guys are great! Have fun with the rest of the year!
Besos y abrazos,
Miss Rehberg

martes, el 19 de abril
Today we began woor in groups to create a skit about going to the doctor. half the groups had the flu, half had a cold. your skits need to include a "medico", a "farmeceutico", and an "enfermo". You need to use all of your vocabulary words. You need to write out your script and give me a copy before you perform. you MAY have a script when you perform.
We will perform on Wednesday ad Thursday.
If you think you have a missing assignment... some see me WEDNESDAY, because it needs to be in before I leave school on Thursday. No exceptions.

viernes y lunes y martes Ay Caramba!
On friday mr lingle was your teacher... you took your test.
on monday and tuesday we looked at saying things like "I like" "I dislike" "It interests" and "It bores"
things you need to know:
Me= me
Te= you (informal)
le= him, her, it, you (formal)
Nos= us
les= them, you all
Gustar= to be pleasing to or to please
Interesar= to be interesting to or to interest
Aburrir= to be boring to or to bore
Gusto = I please (I am pleasing to)
Gustas = You plase (you are pleasing to)
Gusta = It pleases (it is pleasing to)
Gustamos = We please (we are pleasing to)
Gustan = They please (they are pleasing to)
In order to complete the sentence you need an object that the subject pleases...
Me gusta = it pleases me
Te gusta = it pleases you
Le gusta = it pleases him
Nos gusta = it pleases us
les gusta = it pleases them
The same thing works for interesar and aburrir.
Something else tha tis important:
what is the difference between "Me aburro" and "Me Aburre"?
One means: "I bore myself", and one means "It bores me." BE CAREFUL!!!!
Today I passed back your tests and gave you time to correct your mistakes and turn those in.
The we read the interactive story "De la cabeza a los pies" VERY FUN!!

Hola!
We have been working feverishly on those crazy stem-changing verbs in order to be ready for our TEST TOMORROW!!!
you need to know ALL OF THE VOCAB that is given to you in the book including parts of the body, soccer stuff, baseball stuff, basketball stuff, and the stem-changind verbs.
the words that people weren't expecting are these:
To be tied = quedar empatada
Inning = entrada
Half or quarter = tiempo
to mark a point = marcar un tanto
make a goal = meter un gol
right = derecho(a)
left = izquierdo(a)
Good luck!!

Hola chicos!!
Hoy leemos un articulo muy difícil. Today we read a very difficult article. The activity is what is called an "Upper threshold" activity. The idea is that you can see 1. how much you have learned and 2. how much you still need to learn. It also lets me see those things :) Upper threshold activities are always difficult and frustrating, but you need to focus on how WELL you did, not dwell on the things you struggled with.
I read the article out loud. YOU wrote down what YOU thought the article said (we went sentence by sentence) I asked you not to talk to neighbors, because I wanted to know what YOU could understand... not what your neighbor could understand. We also worked on not interrupting.
Tomorrow we will go through the article and see how well you did translating!
buenas noches!

April Fools
Today I graded your quizzes and found that we struggled a few verbs. Here is what I saw:
Devolver is an IRREGULAR verb. It is an "O to UE" verb. I would write it in your notes like this: O -> UE
DEVUELVO DEVOLVEMOS
DEVUELVES
DEVUELVE DEVUELVEN
*notive that it is regular in the nosotros form... all irregular verbs are regular in the nosotros and vosotros forms
Next:
Meter is a REGULAR verb. It is TOTALLY NORMAL IN EVERY WAY! Some people tried to put in extra letters... but alas... you didn't need to!
METO METEMOS
METES
METE METEN
And of course we could also review IR and TENER because some of us forgot those.
IR is COMPLETELY irregular in EVERY WAY! It looks like this:
VOY VAMOS
VAS
VA VAN
TENER is also very irregular. It looks like this:
TENGO TENEMOS
TIENES
TIENE TIENEN
Not only is it what we call a "GO verb" (the verbs that end in GO in the Yo form) but it is also what we call an "E to IE" verb. You can write it in your notes as: E -> IE. Notice again that it is normal in the nosotros form!
We also FINALLY finished Harry Potter!

march 30... out like a lamb
I'm sorry I didn't get this up sooner, my internet wasn't working.
Yesterday we took a quiz on verbs. Then I gave you a worksheet for homework. THEN I let you have your vocabulary quizzes back so we could go through and make corrections. Each one you corrected was worth half the value that you lost (so if you lost 1/2 a point you got 1/4 a point back)
Today we will FINALLY finish Harry Potter! I am so sorry it has taken so long, but short days are good days for it because we can't seem to get into a lesson before we have to pack up.
