GRADE 7
Trimester 3
Assignment for 26 mayo – 1 junio
During this final week of classes, estudiantes, let’s do three things:
1. Take a moment to recite your oraciones / prayers out loud. (Use your “Bendiciones y Oraciones” prayer sheet or you can find the prayers on the Spanish classroom site on our school website.) Remember your peticiones personales and those of your classmates.
2. Check Option C for any misssing assignments. Take the time this week to submit any Spanish work that is still due.
3. Practice singing “ Las Mañanitas” and send positive thoughts to our friends celebrating their birthdays this month and through the summer: los cumpleaños del verano. In seventh grade they are: Daniela, Shane, Grace, Lucas, Drew, Melanie, Brianna, Gianna, Caitlin H, Ashley, Bronwyn, Lindsay, and Will.
¡ Feliz cumpleaños a todos!
Assignment for 18 mayo - 20 mayo
During this short school week, estudiantes, let's do 3 things:
1. For prayers this week, please go to the "Prayers / Oraciones" sub tab and pray the beautiful prayer of St. Teresa of Ávila available there in Spanish and English.
2. Check Option C for any misssing assignments. Take the time this week to get caught up with any Spanish work that you have not yet submitted to me.
3. Continue to work on Duolingo. Check out this video for a brief reminder on noun gender in Spanish:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ds8irrvq04
¡Gracias, y vaya con Dios, clase!
Assignment for 11 mayo – 15 mayo
* Recite your oraciones / prayers out loud. Use your “Bendiciones y Oraciones” prayer sheet. If you don't have your worksheet you can find the prayers on our school website.
* Continue to work on Duolingo, dating your cuaderno and adding 10 new words to your notes section and to your diccionario personal in the back. This week I’d like you to take a picture of the list of words you wrote in your cuaderno from one of the days you worked on Duolingo, and email it to me. Recall my previous directions:
“Make 2 columns. In the left column, write the Spanish word. Include (m) or (f) to designate whether the word is masculine or feminine. It may be helpful to draw a picture here to remind you of the word’s meaning. The right column should have the English translation of the word.”
* In addition, please write a paragraph telling me what your experience has been using Duolingo. Has it been helpful? Informative? Enjoyable? Useful? I’m interested in hearing your honest opinion.
Seventh graders, please email both portions of this assignment to me by Friday, 15 mayo.
¡Gracias, y vaya con Dios, clase!
Assignment for 4 mayo – 8 mayo
For your assignment this week, seventh graders, let’s take a break from our usual routine and listen to some music! I will ask you to watch a video, research three questions, then write your response in one paragraph with a minimum of 6 to 8 sentences.
* Two weeks ago the concert “One World: Together At Home” was shown on multiple television stations to raise money for research on the Coronavirus. Of more than 70 entertainers in the concert, Maluma was the only artist to perform in Spanish. Please research the questions below after watching this performance of “Carnaval” by Maluma:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=eCMV4_dR5uc
1. Who is Maluma; what is his Hispanic heritage?Seventh graders: enjoy the music and email your assignment to me by 8 mayo. Some of you still need to email me your Holy Week assignments, also. These count as third trimester grades.
2. Look up la letra/ the lyrics of the song; provide the English and Spanish version of one line of the song.
3. Critique the song and its message, especially as part of this particular concert. What was your personal reaction to the song?
Please know that you and your families continue to be in my fondest thoughts and prayers.
¡Gracias, y vaya con Dios, clase!
Assignment for 27 abril – 1 mayo
Hola, clase: If you have not already done so, please email me your Holy Week assignment. This counts as a third trimester Spanish grade. Gracias.
For your assignment this week, seventh graders, please do the following:
* For your oraciones / prayers this week say one decade of the rosary in Spanish, that is: 1 Our Father, 10 Hail Mary prayers, and 1 Glory Be to the Father. Offer up your prayers for someone who needs them in a special way this week. If you want, you can email me your peticiones / special intentions and I’ll include them in our oraciones de clase / class prayers next week.
* Continue to work on the free language learning website Duolingo at www.duolingo.com
This week I’d like you to add some of the new vocabulary words you’re learning to your cuaderno. Date your copybook and add 10 new words you’ve learned from Duolingo, concentrating on nouns. (Remember a noun is a person, place, or thing.)
I suggest you make 2 columns. In the left column, write the Spanish word. Include (m) or (f) to designate whether the word is masculine or feminine. It may be helpful to draw a picture here to remind you of the word’s meaning. The right column should have the English translation of the word.
Finally, you can add these new Spanish vocabulary words to your diccionario personal / your personal dictionary in the back of your cuaderno.
* Practice singing “ Las Mañanitas” and send positive thoughts to our friends celebrating their birthdays this month: los amigos con cumpleaños en abril. In seventh grade they are: Roman, Keara, Michael, and Kaitlyn. I also have un nieto nuevo / a new grandson born this month: Nicolás Cabrera Porth, born April 24, 2020! ¡ Feliz cumpleanos a todos!
Seventh graders: you don’t have to send me your Duolingo work this week, but you’re welcome to email me with any comments or questions. Later, I will ask you to send me some samples of the work you’ve been doing. Please DO send your Holy Week Assignments.
Know that you and your families are in my fondest thoughts and prayers.
¡Gracias, y vaya con Dios, clase!
Assignment for 20 abril-24 abril
Hola, clase : A few of you sent me your Holy Week assignments already. I had not required this, thinking we’d be back in school at some point. Since that is not the case please email your work to me at: Mporth@stdots.com These Holy Week assignments will count for a third trimester Spanish grade. Gracias.
For your assignment this week, seventh graders, please do the following:

Please know that you and your families are in my fondest thoughts and prayers.
¡Vaya con Dios, clase!

Semana de Pascuas / Easter Week

Trimester 3
Trimester 3 will begin with remote learning due to our temporary school closing. Your focus should be on your major subjects and on staying healthy and hopeful. I will post communications regarding Spanish class here under Homework Express. I don't want Spanish, as a "special", to be the source of any stress for you. Be assured of my thoughts and prayers until we return to school.
Here are some things you can do until I see you again in class:* Study your "Bendiciones y Oraciones" . Perhaps you will even begin to know parts of the prayers by heart. If you don't have your worksheet, you can find the prayers on our school website. Go to:
Academics - Classrooms - Spanish-Mrs. Porth - Prayers / Oraciones
* Continue to look for the use of Spanish in everyday life. Keep a list of what you find in your cuaderno.
* Continue to research your Spanish-speaking country if you have time after completing other coursework. Follow your curiosity, keeping notes on a word doc or in your cuaderno. We'll share what we have learned when we return to school.
¡Vaya con Dios, queridos estudiantes!
