Matthew was given time to create and study notecards for his new list of vocabulary containing recommendation verbs.

Matthew took a practice quiz at the end of his session. He scored high but not perfect.

Matthew then drew verbs from his deck of cards. He had to write a sentence in the subjunctive mood using whatever card he drew.

We then inventoried Matthew's vocabulary. He was impressed with the number of words that had made it into his deck of vocabulary.

Lastly, Matthew was given an opportunity to explore his textbook. He found his way to a multi-paragraph technical writeup of a cell. We read the entire passage. Matthew did a great job sounding out the new words we encountered.

I then asked him a series of questions about the passage. The questions required him to closely read and understand with enhanced clarity the information being discussed.

At the end of the session, Matthew said that he enjoyed reading what was probably the most technical specimen that he has encountered in Spanish.

I am glad that he had fun.
