Today we practiced and reviewed a bunch of our vocabulary, and worked on the Family words. Family trees were due, but students weren't ready to explain them out loud, and we'll hang on to them until a future class when their fluency is greater and they can explain them comfortably. We did 2 activities of listening cuaderno work.

Homework: Pg. 21-24 cuaderno, photocopied packet to complete using the pages from the book as reference.
