Studying for Finals

Final Exams are coming up!  Next week actually – are you ready?

We will be spending time in class preparing for Finals by reviewing and practicing the skills that you have learned this year.  Please bring the following items with you to class everyday for our review:

• Chapter Vocabulary lists
• Chapter Verb Charts 
• Notebooks/Notes from the semester
• Three Column Verb Chart (Review of verbs from Spanish 1)
• Elvis Foldables and Notes
• Mandatos (Commands) Notes:  Negative/Positive, Formal/Informal
• Textbook
• Paper and writing utensils.  (Yes, I'm listing this because it appears that this seems to be "optional" for some of you.  It's not. )

We will spend time discussing the IMPORTANT pieces that brought each unit together and have been continually emphasized this semester.  We will also discuss error correction, Elvis, Commands, etc.  Please be prepared to be focused, work hard and review, review, review!

I am also attaching a MP3 file (audio recording) of this chapter's vocabulary.  You can download it to practice your pronunciation.  I hope it helps.

Here is another copy (although this one is blank – just colored squares!) of the Chapter Verb Chart.

Only one more week (Jan 14th!) until your next QUIZ!
