Hello Parents and Students,

We are in need of Wet wipes! Any donations are appreciated! We are also in need of EXPO Markers and Band Aids.

I have CANCELLED the written tests and quizzes. I feel that many of my students study the material to memorize it for the test and then forget it. This is a major problem because the Spanish language builds on itself. We are taking time out to review everything we have learned this year again. I want to make sure that MY students understand everything. My main goal is to help your child succeed! I hope that in doing this ALL my students will master the concepts and end the year with confidence and knowledge of the Spanish language! If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me. .

Speaking TEST on May 18TH. LAST TEST OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!! The speaking test will be given in a scenario format. Studnets will need to speak about a topic in Spanish for 45 seconds.

The following concepts will be covered on the SPEAKING test:

Vocabulary words listed on page 159 in the purple book (FIRST Section) Unidad 3 Etapa 1.

Expressing feelings and adjectives using the verb ESTAR

Saying what just happened using ACABAR De.

Saying where someone is coming from using the verb venir.

Saying what someone likes to fo using Gustar + infinitive.

Please come in for a study session if you need extra help! Schedule a time with Ms. McIntire.

Thank you,

Ms. McIntire
