• One three-ring binder for Spanish class materials only, divided into four sections. 

1. Práctica (for warm up activities, class notes, and in class practice exercises), 
2. Vocabulary (for chapter Vocabulary which will be completed and turned in at the end of each chapter on exam day for 30 points),
3. Tarea (for homework assignments that are not in the workbook),
4. Papeles Viejos (any completed work that is graded and returned to you). Everything should be neatly organized and hole-punched.

• A one-subject notebook or equivalent amount of paper for your Práctica (notes and activities) sections of your binder.
• Pens (red & blue/black), pencils, highlighter
• ** Strongly recommended: a Spanish/English pocket-sized dictionary, glue stick, markers/colored pencils/or crayons.

Here are some suggestions for students to keep up with Spanish during this time:

1. Duolingo (free app on phone)
2. Roseta Stone (have already posted in Teams - Files - read and follow directions if interested)
3. Hoy Hablamos (Free podcast super fun and interesting - lower levels can listen to it in slower pace)
4. News in Slow Spanish (Free podcast same as above)
5. Kahoot
6. Quizlet
7. Señor Jordan on YouTube
8. Tio spanish on YouTube
9. Basho and friends on YouTube
10. LunaCreciente on Youtube for younger children (6th grade)
11. A Tiempo Preescolar on Youtube for younger children (6th grade)
12. Comprehensible Spanish on youtube
13. NachoTime Spanish on youtube
14. Learn Spanish with Habla videos 
15. Butterfly Spanish on youtube
16. The Spanish Dude on youtube

There are obviously a ton more resources such as Netflix movies and shows in Spanish, youtube programs, radio etc.

Please feel free to check out any of the above as well as do your own research and find something that is fun and accessible to you at this time.

 

¡Buena suerte a todos!

¡¡¡Abrazos fuertes!!!

Hey guys! Check out this article on how to put accents on word documents!

Let me know if it works by using accents for your written work after Spring break :)

Please enjoy your spring break and be safe!!

Love you all!!!

My dear students,

 

With the uncertainty of the times we are experiencing I think I would like to make a change on how you are submitting your work.  I had originally told you that certain things can be turned in after break in person, but I think it is better and I would appreciate it if you could start taking pictures/screen shots of any assignments that are not already electronic and submit to me in Teams or by email.  If you prefer you could simply create word documents titled the textbook activity or the CMP pages and activities and just submit this way.

 

This way I can really keep track of your progress and keep posting your points in Aeries, instead of waiting for after break to have you "hand in" your work.

 

Teams is way better and organized than email, but if you absolutely have to email me your work please make sure that you include first and last name, class and period so I can quickly give you credit.

 

Please take care of yourselves and stay safe!

 

Thank you & Love you all,

Sra.Kouris

Submit your quiz for credit

Quiz will be open until 3pm

Dear students,

 

Please make sure that you are remaining in your existing period for Teams.  You DO NOT NEED to request a period change NOW, because I will continue to post in each period /level respectively.

 

 

1.Please DO NOT request a period change in TEAMS now. Stay in your existing period that you have been using all this time with me in class.

 

 

2. Please check in Teams - FILES for PP (Powerpoint) lesson plans for each day of this virtual school weeks.

 

3. Please return any work required in TEAMS or by email at: [email protected]

 

4. Work that does not get turned in during this time, will BE GRADED upon return to regular classroom, so PLEASE create a folder to collect all such items.

 

5. Please stay calm and know that I am working very hard to ensure that none of my classes stay behind due to the situation we are experiencing.  I am very flexible and understanding and my goal is to make these two weeks lesson plans as close to the lesson plans we would be following in class for this reason. 

 

6. If you have questions or need clarifications please know that my office hours are: Monday-Friday 10am to 12pm and at that time you can either email me

 

I love you all, stay safe and healthy!

 

Gracias,

Sra.Kouris
