Spanish 1 Updates w/ Señor Hall
Happy December ~ Feliz diciembre
We are still working in Unit 8 ~ La comunidad this week. This is our LAST Unit in Spanish one learning about vocabulary to describe our Communities. As always, make sure you are keeping up with the assignments in the course and reaching out to me if you need help or have questions. You are not bothering me. :) Yo soy tu profesor de español. I am here to help you learn Spanish and technology skills. Please don't ever hesitate to ask me any questions that you have about the course. :)
Final Projects, Writing, Cultural, Speaking and Writing Assignments
Please don't forget to complete all the Actividades Culturales (Cultural Activities), the Hablar Speaking Assignments, the Escribir Writing assignments or the Proyectos Finales (Final Projects). These assignments are critical as not doing these assignments makes it mathematically impossible to pass the course. Many students have been making this work up recently and are now doing better in the course. ¡¡¡¡Excelente!!!! Keep up the good work!!!

Required Live Class (RLC) Schedule
The purpose of the Required Live Classes (RLC) is to give students access to their teachers for lessons, Q & A and support in their Spanish classes. The RLC sessions are offered every week at a variety of times. You may attend any session you like. Choose the one that best fits your schedule.
Here is a Google Calendar link to all the Spanish 1 sessions:
Just pay attention to the times, dates and topics:
Remember GS = Getting Started
U1 = Unit 1
U2 = Unit 2
After attending each session, you need to complete a brief reflective assignment including the following items:
When did you attend (provide date and time)?
Who was the teacher/presenter?
What did you cover/learn? (You should include a complete copy of your notes with at least 10 specific things discussed/covered.)
What do you still have questions about? (You should always have questions, so do NOT put "none.")
What do you need to work on/improve? (This should be specific, regarding at least one thing that was discussed in the session.)
How do you plan to improve in the area/s listed above? (Again, be as specific as possible.)
How can I (your teacher) help you? (Again, be as specific as possible.)
Please use COMPLETE SENTENCES in your responses and submit this at the bottom of the RLC Assignment page.
