• Name three places that I go to in Spanish

We began new vocabulary, the left side of page 236. Students took part in a competition to see who could say the words in English first. We did activity 1, which is a listening activity that reviews vocabulary related to hobbies and connects those terms with places. I drew a map and had a volunteer trace a path to various places, and then students drew their own maps to use with a partner.

• Recognize and conjugate reflexive verbs

After a review of last week's vocabulary including activity 4 in the book, I detailed the steps for conjugating reflexive verbs. Students conjugated vestirse (e to ie) on their own and then did activity 9, in which they chose in which order they do two verbs and write a sentence for each using antes de or después de. I explained that verbs can be reflexive if you do something to yourself (such as wash your hands or shave) or non-reflexive if you do something to something or someone else (such as wash the dishes or wake up a sibling). We'll practice this tomorrow.
