We used Glogster to create a poster-like page in which we talked about the reflexive verbs we learned. We included everything we learned about reflexive verbs, such as the reflexive pronouns and how to conjugate the verbs. Also, we embedded a video to the Glog, where we discussed our morning routine in Spanish. This project was used in place of taking a test.

I prefer doing a project like this over taking a test. I am a visual learner, and so things stick in my brain better when i can look at them. By typing the things we had learned into the Glog, I was able to remember them better. Tests make me nervous and I don’t enjoy filling out a bunch of answers that I most likely already know. The Glog was a fun way to reiterate everything we had learned.

The purpose of this blog post is so that we can practice telling what people are like.We need to be able to describe people in Spanish.  Learning this descriptions is important because we describe people in English daily. By describing Nelson Cruz, we are improving our skills and will be able to better describe others in Spanish.

Nelson Cruz es de Monte Christe y es Dominicano. Él es una jugador de béisbol para Texas Rangers. Él tiene treinta y uno años. Cruz tiene pelo castaño y es alto y fuerte. Él es atlético, feliz, y trabajador. Él es también amable y honesto. Nelly Cruz es la favorita de Mrs. Hugghins.

Justin Bieber es mi cantante favorito. Él es de London, Ontario y es canadiense. Justin es una famoso cantante y es muy talentoso. Él tiene veintisiete años. Justin tiene pelo castaño y es muy bello. Justin es ni alto ni bajo. Él es musical y flaco. A él le gusta jugar al básquetbol, tocar la guitarra, y tocar la batería. Justin es amable, perezosa, trabajador, y muy cómico.

Today in class, we wrote our 2-1 vocabulary sentences online. We went to stixy.com to type the sentences and then added pictures to match the sentences. We arranged the sentences and pictures in order and then saved the stixy.

Recently, in Spanish class we created a Voki character online and added a voice to it. We started by creating an account on the Voki website and creating an avatar for ourselves. Next, we were required to call the phone number for the website and record oursleves speaking in Spanish and saying what we like to do. After that, we had to save the recording and email it to Mrs. Hugghins.

Personally, I enjoyed the project. I liked being able to create my own avatar but I didn’t like having to record my own voice because I thought it sounded funny. However, I did like that we got to use technology for a project.
