REFLECTION: This assignment was a great refresher for me. Understanding how to use and listen for different commands is another great way for me to adopt more precision in my Spanish speaking and have the ability to sound more educated and versed.

REFLECTION: this celebrity couples assignment was very enjoyable for me and it really helped me understand how to articulate the idea of people doing things to each other. I also think that this activity will be very helpful in understanding when others speak, as well as allowing me to shorten my sentences and use more precision.

REFLECTION: This assignment really helped me become better at recognizing the different grammatical uses of pronouns and adjectives in Spanish. It allowed me to compare and contrast multiple uses of similar phrases, and I think it will also help me to better comprehend conversational speaking in Spanish.

es urgente que encuentres una nueva casa porque la tuya es muy pequeña. 

2- es necesario que la casa tenga cuántos cuartos?para qué son los cuartos?

es necesario que la casa tenga tres cuartos. los cuartos son para ti, tus amigas para visitar, y yoga

3- es bueno que el jardín sea grande o no es necesario que sea grande?

es necesario que tengas un gran jardín

4- es necesario que me mudé de casa inmediatamente?

no es necesario que te muevas ahora 

5- cuándo es necesario que busque la casa?

es necesario que busques la casa ya. 

reflection: learning about the subjunctive was very difficult for me at first because it challenged everything I knew about Spanish and my comfort level. I feel much more confident using the subjunctive after all the practice we've had, but I still have to slow down and take my time when reading or speaking in order to make sure I am using the correct mood. I still need to memorize the list of always subjunctive vs. sometimes subjunctive.

reflection: I still need to work on my emotion verbs and conjugations, and this is the one section that I feel I needed to spend a little more time on. I think memorizing the most important verbs I need to know would help me.

Miguel no cree que ella baila con él

¿Qué duda Miguel? (dos ejemplos) 

miguel duda que sea buena idea llegar tarde

miguel duda que esté enamorada del terminator 

¿Qué no cree Miguel? (dos ejemplos) 

Miguel no cree que ella necesite saber todo sobre él en la primera cita

No cree que a Susan le gusten los gatos gordos y apestosos.

¿Qué crees tú?

Creo que miguel es inteligente y sus amigos son estupidos 

Reflection: This section was fairly easy for me since we worked so hard how to conjugate the subjunctive. I liked responding to the questions about the video.

Reflection: the subjunctive with conjunctions was very challenging for me. I would have appreciated if there were other materials/ videos explaining this concept in English, because the one video all in Spanish did not help me grasp the concept at all.

 What is a clue that we will need subjunctive

 ¿Cuántas albercas quiere el Maestro Kaplan? 

 El maestro Kaplan quiere cinco albercas 

 Qué coche quiere el Maestro Kaplan?

 maestro Kaplan quiere un mini Cooper 

De quién necesita el número de teléfono? Necesito el nombre del mecanico que sepa de mini coopers 

 I spend a ton of time on the websites but I could only find three adjective clauses using the subjunctive

 1. Anticipa hacer la primera movida y la mayor parte del seguimiento, porque no admitirá que le gustas hasta que sepa que a ti también te gusta, además de cumplir con sus criterios." 

 2. "Hazle cumplidos por sus ideas y logros."

 3. “Pregúntale sobre sus opiniones y teorías sobre algún tema.
REFLECTION: I think this unit was one of the most complicated ones for me, but the master Kaplan video, and the Bismarck media video did a great job at explaining when, and how to use adjective clauses. Finding the examples on the online sites was very hard for me and I think it would’ve been more useful to practice rather than to look for them.

No lo comamos el Gusano

Debemos sentarnos? 

Sentémonos

Debemos irnos?

No nos vamos
Reflection: I really liked this unit and I love the way that Nosotros commands sound. This one was very easy for me to learn, and I loved listening to Kevin Kaarl’s song.

I also enjoyed this unit and similar to the Nosotros commands, I enjoy the thought process of using past participles as adjectives and I like how they sound. I did mess up a bunch originally because there are a couple steps and the irregular verbs really threw me off, but the quizziz made me more confident.

Que esté en mi cama viernes y domingos 

que me quiera cuando estoy

que me quiera cuando me voy

que conozca las palabras que jamás le voy a decir

que no le importe mi ropa, si total me voy a desvestir

Paso tres

Hoy vi 2 videos diferentes para encontrar mi verdadero amor. Vi los videos de ava y emily p. A ambos les gustan las actividades al aire libre, pero a mí me gusta quedarme en casa. Decidí que Ava es el amor que busco. La quería porque prefiero hacer actividades en el agua que en la nieve. Emily quiere que alguien vaya a esquiar con ella y yo le tengo miedo a las alturas. También creo que ava ama a los perros tanto como a mí, lo cual es muy importante.
REFLECTION: After the first round of practice, this assignment was a lot easier for me. I enjoyed looking for the lyrics in the song because it was short. I also enjoyed listening to my peers videos and using what I had learned to respond.
