  1. Bellringer 8/31 • Take out a half sheet, put your name on it, and tell me the following: • Which of the following do you have at home: computer, internet, printer, newspaper • Tell me 3 interesting things about yourself • Tell me YOUR cell phone number and e-mail address (if you have either)

  2. El alfabeto • In English, sounds AND letters of the alphabet are just one letter. In Spanish, each letter is spelled out, except for the vowels. For example, if I were giving a quiz on letters, if I said “eme,” you would just write “m.”

  33. Los vocales • The sounds that the vowels make in Spanish can get a little confusing. • A - “ah”- “father” • E - “eh”- “they” • I - “ee”- “police” • O - “oh”- “low” • U - “oo”- “sue”

  34. Punctuation • Question marks and exclamation points are placed upside down at the beginning of a question or exclamation. ¿ ? ¡ ! • Why? • Accent marks are tilted lines placed over vowels. They indicate that you should put emphasis on that syllable. á é í ó ú • Why are they important?

  35. A wavy line over the letter “n” is called a tilde. “ñ” = “ny” in canyon • You may sometimes (not often) see the letter “u” with two dots over it. To pronounce this letter in “pingüino,” you would say “peen-gwee-noh.” Without the two dots, it would be pronounced “peen-gee-noh.” • Commas and periods in numerals are opposite of what we are used to in English. • $1.50=1,50 1,234,567=1.234.567
