Class News for the month of January (enero):

5th Grade:

In January we will be learning vocabulary for weather conditions and the 4 seasons.  We will ask and answer questions using vocabulary from this topic and create short sentences as well.

6th Grade:

In January we will be working on a project using classroom objects and the location of those objects.  This will be presented orally in class.  We will also learn the plural of nouns and articles in Spanish and how to form sentences using these rules.

7th Grade:

Seventh grade did a great job on their family project.  Their Spanish pronunciation is also coming along very nicely (they had to orally present their projects in Spanish).  In January we will begin conjugating the verb “tener” which means to have.  We will conjugate this verb in sentences and ask and answer questions using this verb.

8th Grade:

8th grade will be learning the present progressive tense in Spanish.  They will create sentences using this topic and affirmative commands which we learned in December.  In January we will also begin the topic of clothing and how much clothing can cost.
