Welcome everyone! I know it's almost the end of the third week of school, but it is my first day to Spanish class so I would like to welcome everyone! I had a wonderful time in Minnesota getting married under oak trees and dancing until my feet almost feel off, but I am excited to get back to work!

Celida Solis has been very kind to sub that last twelve days of class, mostly reviewing with the students. She had many kind words to say about how focused, polite, and bright you all are! Thank you for treating her so kindly. I have and will finish reviewing all of the work that everyone has completed over the last twelve days as well as correct the pretests from today (that you will all finish tomorrow) 

Students -- if you are reading this blog, please post something to me and you can earn one extra participation point from the first two weeks of school! (you have until September 1st!) I will be using this to recap for parents what we are up to in class and also to list homework assignments. Check out the links on the left -- they have many helpful homework and study tools!

As far as grading, I will continue to grade using our participation scale that was sent home in the welcome letter. I will start grading assignments as soon as the review period is over. Next week, I will be sending home a Spanish class calendar with unit start and end dates as well as highlights to come.

I look forward to getting to know you all (and your parents) better!

Paz,

Profe. Laura
