MIDDLE SCHOOL
The middle school students are learning regular verb conjugations in the indicative mood. (The indicative is one of three moods in Spanish. The indicative mood is typically used for making factual statements or describing obvious qualities of a person or situation.)
I have joined a website for the students to practice their conjugations and their vocabulary words. We have been using the Chromebook in class to connect. There are also games on the site to help them. They can access this site from home to practice. They are now required to do a graded practice weekly and record score.
10 minutes for each exercise
Here is the site and login info:
Go to WWW.conjuguemos.com
Username = First name Last initial -scs (no spaces)
Example: John Smith would be JohnS-scs
Password = spanish202
If the above link does not work type in the URL www.conjuguemos.com
Click on Login
and enter username and password
(sometimes username and password needs to be in all lowercase letters. Always no spaces)
CULTURAL STUDY
Currently the middle school students are doing a cultural study on Mexico and Nicaragua. They are working on creating a skit that represents each country. The intent is for them to be immersed in the culture of the country they are working on.
Here is a sample of a skit created by last years students.
Cultural study skit on Honduras and ArgentinaSIXTH GRADE
The 6th graders are learning regular " ar" verb conjugations. The conjugations are in the indicative mood in the present tense. They have been introduced to many new words and basic grammar in order to write properly composed sentences with the words and conjugations they are leaning.

This quarter they worked on a skit in Spanish. They wrote all their own lines and performed a presentation.

THANK YOU to the Morris family for adopting SPANISH
I would like to introduce the children to multiple mediums for learning the Spanish language. It's my desire to make learning Spanish interesting and fun. With this in mind there are several items I would like to have as part of the classroom.
- Chapter books in Spanish
- Pobre Anna (There are several books in this series all under $8)
- Berto (There are also several books in this series all under $8)
- I would appreciate any books in the Porbre Anna and Berto series.
-
- Graphic novels in Spanish
- or Books they know and enjoy but in Spanish like:
- The magic tree house
- Harry Potter
- A series of unfortunate events
- etc.
Thank you
Mrs. Maria Arroyo
