Today, Sam and I reviewed new vocabulary. Sam read aloud. I gave Sam several examples and contexts of how to use vocabulary in order to communicate. We read a conversation between Diana, Ignacio and Roberto. Great practice to build listening skills... Listening for specific information is like scannig when reading. Sam was able to take notes about the reading. After reading Sam was able to answer comprehension questions (tell what is true or false and why/tell who speaks/ tell what they do) in reference to the conversation. Sam ordered Diana's activities (Alquila un video, prapara el almuerzo, hace la tarea, cuida a su hermano, va de compras) I explained a language note to Sam: There are many ways to talk about a good friend( un buen amigo) here are some examples: Colega/Spain, Cuadro/Colombia, Cuate/Mexico, Pana/Puerto Rico-Ecuador-Some countries in Latin America, Pata/Peru, Vale/Venezuela. Then we spoke about "Hermanita". Ignacion uses this word when talking about Diana (textbook conversation). The ending- ITO/ITA adds meaning to a word. It can refer to something very small or express a special relationship.Then Sam used several words to express feelings like (Alegre, deprimido, preocupado, contento, triste, emocionado, cansado and more. Completing a sentence with the right word (textbook pages 178,179,180,181,182,195)...
