Dos semanas más…(two more weeks)

By: Alyssa Munch

Welcome to Spanish I Honors, or should I say Bienvenidos a la

clase de Español! We’re going to start off by reviewing some of

the basic phrases and vocabulary in Spanish…

I will be taking a grade everyday for

participation, so make sure you raise your

hand as often as you can. Can anyone tell

me the different forms of the verb “estar”?

Estoy, estás, está,

estamos, están

Excelente, señorita!

Do you have any

idea what’s going on?

Not a clue. This is going

to be a loooong

year.

How come it seems like we’re the only ones that don’t

know what’s going on?

Because we are the only ones who don’t

know what’s

going on.

Maybe tomorrow

will be better.

Let’s hope so.

Verb Tenses

-o -amos

-as

-a -an

You are all doing great with these verb tenses.

We will only be reviewing this material for a little while longer and then we’ll move on to some newer, more advanced

concepts.

Great. More

advanced concepts when I

don’t even understand these basic

ones.

Do you think we should talk

to her?

Maybe. Let’s talk

to her after class.

Of course girls!

What can I help

you with?

We were wondering if we

should drop down to regular

Spanish.

I’m sorry to hear that

you’re feeling so

lost. Is there

anything in particular

that’s confusing

you?

Alright, I’ll make you girls a deal. In

about two weeks, the students who

are more experienced with Spanish will be faced with new material. The

review will be over for them and you’ll all be back on the

same playing field.

If at the end of those two weeks

you still feel overwhelmed, I’ll gladly sign the

papers to let you drop down to

regular Spanish. Dos semanas

más, deal?

Deal!

Umm…verbs,

vocabulary, phrases.

Pretty much everything

we’ve learned.

Well, we are having a really tough time in class. We kinda feel like everyone else is

way ahead of us since we didn’t have much

experience with Spanish before this

class.

Señora, can we

talk to you about

something?Dea

l!

Two weeks later…

Alright, this is a toughie. Can

anyone tell me if the next verb

should be a form of ser or estar?

Today:

Ser vs. estar

Estar.

Muy bien, Alyssa. That was a difficult

one.

Dos semanas

más!
