Spanish 5-6 students in Dr. Jacobson's class practiced the for the
Entrevista this week, asking and answering each other questions from the study
list and refining their responses. The interview activity is certainly
providing students an opportunity to integrate all the communicative skills they
have developed during their 3 years of study of the Spanish language.
Spanish 7-8 students reviewed direct and indirect objects and the past
tense through online quizzes the classes reviewed together. In addition,
students practiced fluency skills through a translated version of Henry Wadsworth
Longfellow's poem 'Song of Life - La canción de la vida,' developing questions
and answers related to the reading.
Spanish AP students continued building vocabulary as well as listening and
reading skills in preparation of the May 7th AP exam, through the APEX online
practice exams and Barron's review materials. Students' most recent essay was
based on the expanded benefits of the computer in modern day society in the
areas of music and the arts.
