Public Diary assignment (10 sentences, 5 Spanish on the front and 5 English translations on the back) This 15 point homework assignment is due Tuesday, February 25. I think your sentences might be more interesting if you do them during break, but you are welcome to write about anything you did between Feb 10th and Feb 24th.You need to write five true, sharable, Spanish sentences saying what you did for five different days in the recent past (Feb 10th -24th). You need the Spanish on the front and the English translations on the back, like we did last time. Students will be reading the Spanish side after break for a game in class. Each sentence needs at least 10 words including at least 4 words for the date [to say On Monday December 7th you could say: “El lunes el siete” (On Monday the 7th) or “El diecisiete de febrero” (On Feb. 17th). Remember you need to start with el to say “on” with dates—NUMBERS NEED TO BE SPELLED OUT IN SPANISH] and at least 6 Spanish words for the rest of the sentence using the PRETERITE PAST TENSE for something you did and completed on that specific date. You need to use a different preterite verb for each sentence.Three things are different this time. 1. You must use at least one reflexive verb (cepillarse, ba?arse, ducharse, lavarse, quedarse, entrenarse, despertarse, levantarse, acostarse, estirarse, peinarse, maquillarse) 2. You must use at least one irregular verb. We have learned the irregular conjugations for IR, SER (IR AND SER ARE THE SAME), VER, and HACER. These are new irregulars you can use: Tener: tuve, tuviste, tuvo, tuvimos, X, tuvieron Decir: dije, dijiste, dijo, dijimos, X, dijeron leer: leí, leíste, leyó, leímos, leyeron Stem changing IR verbs are irregular for the he/she/usted form and the ellos/ellas/ustedes forms. Example: dormir: dormí, dormiste, durmió, dormimos, X, durmieron. If you happen to use a verb you did not know was irregular that is not listed above and you conjugated it using the regular rules you have learned it is ok.3. You must use at least one regular -AR verb and one regular -ER/-IR verb so I know that you know the endings.You can only use any verbs WE HAVE LEARNED THE MEANING OF IN CLASS. Do NOT use new verbs. Example sentences in English: (You can write about yourself, family members, and pets.)On Tuesday the 11th, I went to bed at 11 pm. (acostarse) --remember AM and PM are de la ______On February 24th, my brother woke up (got up) at 6 am. [despertarse (levantarse)] On Wednesday the 19th, my cat stretched under the table. (estirarse)On February 14th, we went to my grandma’s house. (ir) ALSO REMEMBER…they do NOT use ‘s in Spanish so if you want to say you went to someone’s house, you need to say the house of _(that someone)_ If you went to Target there isn’t a translation for Target, but the word Target doesn’t count as one of your Spanish words.Remember to only use –AR, -ER, or –IR verbs we have learned in Spanish 1 or 2. Sample verbs you can use, in addition to the ones listed above, are hablar, cantar, bailar, nadar, visitar, mirar, estudiar, limpiar, escuchar, comprar, pagar, gastar, trabajar, cocinar, comer, correr, conocer, aprender, comprender, beber, abrir, escribirIf you use the yo form of one of these CAR, GAR, ZAR verbs, remember C changes to QUc before E, G changes to GU before E, and Z changes to C before E: llegar, jugar (remember AR verbs don’t shoe in the preterite), tocar, buscar, sacar (fotos o la basura), empezarSEE THE BACK FOR HOW IT IS GRADED AND A CHECKLIST…turn in the checklist with your sentences on Tuesday.Me llamo ______________________________________________Each Spanish sentence is worth 2.5 points: The date phrase in Spanish of at least 4 words is worth a point (spelling of the numbers, days, and months counts), Each Spanish preterite verb is worth a point—remember IR stem changing verbs are irregular…I have conjugated dormir and decir above for you if you want to use them. Follow the checklist below to make sure you included all the kind of verbs you need to.and the rest of the sentence making sense with at least 6 Spanish words is worth ? point. The English sentences on the back are worth the remaining 2.5 points, ? point each. If they are not on the back of the sheet, you will lose all 2.5 points because other students will be reading these in class.If you forget to use at least one irregular verb you will lose a point.If you forget to use at least one reflexive verb you will lose a point, etc. Make sure you followed the checklist for all types of verbs required.ANYONE WHO DOES NOT FINISH ON TIME WILL BE STAYING IN DURING LUNCH UNTIL THEY DO FINISH ON DAYS I’M AVAILABLE.Checklist:I wrote Spanish on the front and English on the back. ___________Each sentence was true and used at least 10 Spanish words. ___________I used a different verb for each sentence. ___________I only used verbs that we have learned in class during Spanish 1 or Spanish 2. ___________I made sure I used one of these irregular verbs (ir/ser, ver, hacer, tener, decir, leer, or dormir), following the correct irregular conjugation (tener, decir, leer, and dormir are conjugated on the other side for you if you wish to use them). ___________If I used a CAR, GAR, or ZAR verb in the yo form, I remembered to change the C, G, or Z before e. ___________I used at least one regular AR verb. ___________I used at least one regular ER/IR verb….Remember IR verbs that stem change are irregular, so don’t use them unless you use dormir or decir which are listed above, and they’d count as irregular and not as an ER/IR verb. ___________I used at least one reflexive verb with me, te, se, or nos in front of the verb ___________I included the date for all of my sentences. ___________I remembered to spell out all the numbers. ___________I remembered that Spanish days and months are NEVER capitalized. ___________I remembered that all of my sentences must start with a CAPITAL letter and end with a period. ___________ ................
