HI GUYS,  I HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD AND RESTED WEEKEND.

THIS WEEK WE´LL BE REVIEWING THE WRITTEN EXERCISE AND ALSO DO SOME ORAL ONES IN UNISON.  I ALSO NEED TO KNOW IF YOU UNDERSTOOD THE VIDEO ABOUT THE SPACE ELEVATOR WHICH WE TRIED TO SEE LAST WEEK, AS WELL AS THE INTERACTIVE ONE ABOUT THE OCEAN WITH DR. BALLARD.

9 FIRST GRADERS PREFER EXPLORING THE OCEAN AND ONLY ONE PREFERED SPACE.

IN SECOND GRADE 7 PREFER THE OCEAN AND 6 SPACE,

WHEREAS 3 THIRD GRADERS WOULD LIKE EXPLORING THE OCEAN AND 7 PREFER SPACE.

THE HOMEWORK I ASKED FOR WAS HALF A  PAGE EXPLAINING WHY YOU PREFER TO EXPLORE WHATEVER AREA YOU CHOSE.

Hi students, I hope you liked the videos we saw on the Space Elevator and Oceanographer Robert Ballard.
I know the sound wasn´t the best so if you have a chance to watch it at home, try to do so.

Wednesday´s HOMEWORK to hand in on Thursday, the 27th  will be an explanatory paragraph on WHY you prefer Space Exploration to Ocean or vice-versa.   Some of you mentioned your reasons.   Now write
these reasons on your Notebook.  Minimum of 3 sentences.  If you can´t think of any reasons then write what you learned from these videos.

First of all let me remind you that the HOMEWORK this week is to STUDY and also UNDERLINE or
make words stand out with COLOR on your Notebooks, in order to learn faster.

Second, we will be having our 1st Internet Session and the link is the following:

http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/alien-deep/?source=link_oceandl091412lalien-deep

This is related to the first Unit of the book called Explorers, which you have already read.

In case you need to see it again at home, you can look it up and show it to your family.

CONGRATULATIONS for having done your first exams of the year.  As you saw, it was easier than you thought, right?  It was just a matter of studying first and concentrating before you answer.

REMEMBER write on your notebooks what we see in class.  WRITE the new VOCABULARY WORDS in the back part of your notebooks with the equivalent in Spanish and learn them as part of your daily homework by repeating them until you learn them.  Make a sentence with each new word.

This coming week we will be going to the Internet Room for your 1st class on Monday 2AB, Tuesday 3AB and Wednesday 1AB...so come prepared.  

REMINDER

As all of you know, the first test of this year will be on Thursday of this week. (the day after tomorrow)
September 20th.

As I have mentioned to you, it will cover:  Short answers, Numbers, Tag Questions, Vocabulary seen in
class, Present Simple and Present Continuous.

Some of you do not have these written on your notebooks, so be sure you can review them with
someone that can lend you their notes.

Animar a Desayunar

KIDS,
Other Secondary Schools enter at 7am -- you have almost 45 minutes difference -- enough for you
to have breakfast! (or at least prepare something to eat on your way to school)...get up earlier...do some exercise...

Please DO eat before coming to school,  that way you are not tempted to eat your lunch in class.

(CHICOS, otras secundarias entran a las 7am--suficiente para desayunar! prepárense algo para el camino...levántense más temprano...hagan algo de ejercicio...procuren comer algo antes de llegar a la escuela para así no tener la tentación de comerse su lunch en la clase.)

Hi Kids and Parents too...   (Hola Chicos y Padres tambien)

WELCOME TO ALL WHO ARE NEW
and for those who´ve been here before,
WELCOME BACK!    (Bienvenidos de nuevo)

I trust we can make progress together and will be happy to teach you
as long as you want to learn and
I hope you do.  (Mientras quieran aprender estaré gustosa de enseñarles)

TRY TO HAVE BREAKFAST BEFORE YOU START YOUR 1st CLASS
and that will garantee you a better day...make it a HABIT and you will learn.

Let me share a thought --  "The mind is like the stomach. It is not how much you put into it that 
counts, but how much it digests.    -- Albert M. Leschak

(Procuren venir desayunados ANTES de comenzar su primer clase y eso les garantizará un aprendizaje.  El pensamiento a compartir es -- "La mente es como el estómago.  No importa mucho cuanto le metes, sino cuanto digiere.)
