Students will write the time in Spanish into the spaces given using the clock faces. We have learned about telling time this week in order to be prepared to catch a train, plane, or bus around Spain for our new unit on Discovering Spain. Please use your resources to complete your homework, which include your journal, worksheets in your folder and or a copy of this units study guide (vocabulary/structures) which already went home in the May (mayo) newsletter (see attached below or this website on the main page where newsletters are located under tags at the top).

This homework asks the students to identify the season and weather from the pictures as a review. We have been talking about what we will pack in our suitcases for our new unit on Discovering Spain.

Students may use the reference page here or any of the material in their Spanish folders to complete this homework.

This is a review homework on clothing. Students may use any clothing words we have learned or use the word bank to draw and label a winter outfit and a summer outfit. There is a five word minimum (in Spanish) for each outfit to be labeled. Be creative and have fun!
