In general, "muy bien" on the test which you got to see from Tuesday. I hope you were able to appreciate the change of pace today, learning about el Día de los Muertos and honoring people we love who have died. Next week we´ll be learning new vocabulary about Actividades: things we do and like to do.
-- If there is anyone else willing to help me keep the Pizarrón de Español in Mr. Heeres´ room updated, please let me know. You can write el tiempo, la fecha, and the school verse in Spanish, as well as keep homework and assignments up-to-date for the whole 8th grade.
-- Also, notice that there is a new Extra Credit possibility written on his board: if you send me (or bring me) an article that talks about a Spanish-speaking country in current events and yours is chosen to be posted, you´ll get extra points! Currently, take a moment to read about the present situation in Honduras as well as a Mexican gang family that is similar to The Godfather's Corleone family.
