Hi all!

As you know, you have your oral exams coming up. I know this is a stressful time, but I want to make sure that you are practicing your conversation skills so you are prepared for this important exam!

Your homework this week is to have a conversation with me! I recorded a video asking 10 questions and explaining how to answer each one. You need to record a video answering the 10 questions and send it back to me. I want you to pretend that this is the real exam and answer the questions carefully. Here is the link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AYlv6OgxH8

Please let me know if you have any questions. This is our last week of official class, but I will be here to support you as you prepare for your oral exams.

Have a great week! :)

What is Zuri's problem?
Who helps Zuri with her hair? How does he learn?
What happened to Zuri's mother?
In your opinion, what is the moral of the story?

2. Watch the short film "The Present" (4 minutes) and answer the following questions:

What present does the boy's mom give him?
At the beginning, does the boy like his present? How does he react?
What do we learn about the boy at the end?
Why do you think the boy's mother gave him that present?
In your opinion, what is the moral of the story?

Good morning all!

I hope you are taking care of yourselves and still staying home.

We are entering week six! Remember that if you are missing any homework, you can still send it to me. I repeat, communication is very important! I am always available to help you if you have problems or questions. You can write to me by email or whatsapp :)

This week, we are going to try something different:

I hope this will be a fun way to see what you remember!
*Please include your first and last name in the Kahoot!*

2. After completing the Kahoot, copy the questions that you got wrong in your notebooks (with the correct answer!). If you do not understand why it is incorrect, ask me!

If you have problems with the internet and can't complete this activity, please let me know.

Have a GREAT week!

Class #4: English - Week 4 (4/20/20-4/27/20)

20/4/2020

This week, you will complete the following activities:

1. Continue with your daily diary. Remember that you should have one entry per day (Monday-Friday) and that Saturday and Sunday are optional. I hope this can be an activity that you enjoy! If you have not turned in your diary from last week, please send it to me as soon as possible.

2. This week we are going to do something a little different, and hopefully fun! You are going to create Quarantorial (Quarantine tutorials) describing how to do normal, daily quarantine activities. Here you can watch my example video about how to watch Netflix in quarantine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLkbfnCE4Oc&feature=youtu.be. These videos should be fun, and should be silly! You can describe how to do anything: how to take classes online, how to get ready (arreglarse) in quarantine, how to make lunch, how to play a game, etc. Be creative and have fun! Here are the instructions:

Choose a normal activity, and make a video of your quarantorial! (Quarantine tutorial!)
Each video must have at least 5 steps (pasos).
The video must have audio!
Send your video to teacher Alyana by Monday, April 27th.

If you have any problems, please let me know and we will find an alternative task.

Class #3: Week 3 (4/13/20-4/20/20) - Quarantine Diary

13/4/2020

I hope you enjoyed Semana Santa and were able to relax a little.

The current situation is very complicated, and I think it's very important to recognize and understand your feelings. This week, your homework is to create a quarantine diary. Each day (Monday-Friday) I want you to write a short paragraph about your quarantine. I will give extra credit if you also complete the diary for Saturday and Sunday.

In your paragraphs you can talk about anything you want, but here are some ideas of questions you can answer:

1. What did you do today?
2. How are you feeling today? Why?
3. How is your family?
4. What are you worried about?
5. What do you hope for the future?

It's not necessary to write very long paragraphs! You will send me your quarantine diary for Monday, April 20th. I hope you enjoy this activity! Writing is one of the best ways to express and understand what we are feeling.
