This month you will complete Chapter 1, "Empieza un Año Nuevo" and start with Chapter 2, "El Cuerpo y la Salud." Please make sure you understand this long Chapter. We spent some extra time on The Preterite, since these verbs can be tricky; especially the irregular verbs. Make sure that you study The Preterite of regular and irregular verbs for the Quiz, October 16 and the Test, the end of October (the 24th or the 30th - we'll decide in class).
Make sure you copy the "Estructura" on page 29 in your cuadernos - on "Negative and Affirmative Expressions." Work on exercises No. 14, 15 and 16. We will review in class. I won't drive you too crazy with these words, because you need a lot of practice to master them; but you must have a general idea of how we use these words in Spanish.
You can start working on the new vocab Vocabulario II "De compras" on pages 32 and 33. Make sure that you write the new nouns with their respective definite articles. Can you understand the Diálogo II on page 34? You should be able to answer Exercises No. 21 and 22.
We will review again the Indirect and the Direct Object Pronouns - the second and third songs, remember? (¿recuerdas?)
In Chapter 2 you will learn some Reflexive Verbs using the Reflexive Pronouns (me te se nos os se) - the first song. Check page 54 ("Estructura" on Reflexive Verbs). You will also learn the Demonstrative Pronouns, page 66. My goal is to complete Chapter 2 in November.
Check: Señor Jordan's Videos to practice the Preterite of Regular and Irregular Verbs, the Affirmative and Negative Words & Expressions and many others! ¡Que viva el señor Jordan! Sus videos son muy buenos... ¡FABULOSOS!
