We will be preparing student interviews for our first speaking assessment. Please see the grading rubric. La Tarea: Gather all of your items needed for your portfolio and complete your Term I Reflection. DAY OF DEAD OFRENDAS ARE DUE ON MONDAY. =============================================================================== Hola Estudiantes,

Plans have changed because I have been sick for a couple of days. I hope to be back in school tomorrow (Friday). At that time I will assign interview groups but we will not move further with the speaking assessment until after the Thanksgiving Break.

Hope to be back in action tomorrow :-)

The sub plans will be posted below. I hope everyone was good while I was out.

Hasta mañana,

Señorita Fannoney ==================================================================================

8th Grade Spanish Sub Plans for Wednesday, November 20, 2013

Finish working on your portfolio murals

Put all items required in your portfolios. Please put the folders back where they go. Prepare your interviews for the upcoming speaking assessment. Students should have a minimum of 15 questions prepared.

If any student is finished they may move on to copy the vocabulary on page 28 (but it is not due tomorrow) ================================================================================= November 21, 2013 Grade 8 Spanish

1. Students should write their essays about their portfolio murals. Write a summary about your folder that explains the images and what you tried to convey through your art. Discuss the specific images and their symbolism. You must explain how you incorporated appreciation for diversity, cultural identity, and history via art in your summary. They received these written directions when we began the portfolios a couple weeks ago and should have a copy of the instructions already in their binders. 2. Complete the vocabulary on pages 28-29 in Spanish and English.


 * Please tell students the group activities will resume after I am well and return to school. The interviews will take place after Thanksgiving because of the Day of the Dead Projects.**
