Información de los "Retakes"
Adjectives Listening Quiz:
- If you earned a grade lower than an AD, you may retake.
- If you earned a grade lower than a PR, you should retake.
- You will need to go through the Request to Retest Process to get that opportunity.
- Pick up a green Request to Retest sheet from the basket in Sra. Moore's room.
- Fill out the top portion and then check to see if you're missing any homework assignments. You can do this by going on to Infinite Campus and clicking on your Spanish class, then Effort/Practice. You'll see a list of your practice assignments and either a green "Turned in" or a red "Missing." Any work that is missing needs to be completed first.
- Then, you're going to focus on improving your understanding of adjectives and their forms based on gender and quantity. Use the strategies from the "Practice Ideas for Adjectives Listening Quiz" below to help you.
- When you feel you've improved, you can staple any completed late work, evidence of the extra practice you did, and the original quiz. Finish filling out the bottom and give the packet to Sra. Moore or Srta. Hahn.
- Use the resources below to help you prepare for these evidences.
- There are 3 help sessions in 203 for the Reading Retake (see the calendar for dates/times).
- The reading retake will be offered after school on Tue. 10/26 from 3:30-4:15 p.m.
- The speaking retake window is open until Wed. 11/5. You may retake that during ACP Tue/Thu or after school on Mon/Wed.
- You must go through the Request to Retest process in order to retake. All practice assignments from Unit 1 must also be completed to have this opportunity.

Old Videos on the Big Concepts from the unit that could help!
The videos below are all ones Sra. Moore made for her virtual students last school year when MPS was virtual.
While our class is in-person & some of the things said don't apply in terms of how the class is set up, the vocabulary, concepts and skills are just like the ones we're learning this year! These could help! The one below covers: adjectives (gender & quantity), the questions "What are you like?", "What aren't you like?" Are you funny?", subject pronouns & forms of the verb SER that is needed to describe personalities.
Last school year, the partner conversation speaking evidence did not include likes/dislikes as it does this year. Here are examples of the conversation minus that part! You can't hear Srta. Voith but you only need to pay attention to how I am speaking & the quality of answers I give to get an idea of what you're shooting for in your conversations.
The next 2 videos I didn't make but did use to teach how to talk about likes/dislikes last year.

These videos Sra. Moore did NOT make but they can still be super helpful!
