¡Bienvenidos al año escolar 2014-2015!
Welcome to Spanish 2!
This BLOG will be a great resource for you throughout this school year. Be sure to check back often to see if you have missed anything...either because you missed it during class or you were absent. (One of the best things you can say to me after being absent is, "I checked the blog and did my homework, but I wanted to ask you about...") :)
I try to update every other day, usually on A days (B day students, you have an advantage, you can usually get a preview of what we will be doing in your next class!) I always write the A day and B day date on top of the assignment, then I list what we went over in class. If we took notes, I lead you to the right place to find those notes as well as the corresponding pages in the packet. You will also find your homework assignment.
I would love it if you signed up for updates from this blog so that whenever I update you will receive an e-mail with that update. I encourage your parents to do so too!
As always, please see me if you have any questions! I am looking forward to "un año maravilloso!"
