The Spanish Department is in desperate need of 3 x 5 lined index cards.
We collected only 3 packs/student (many students did not turn in their
supplies) at the beginning of the school year.
We are in need of 3-4 packs more per student in order to make it through the year.
Please send 4 packs of 3 x 5 lined index cards with your student for 11-30-09.

10-1/10-2:
COL: HWK pg 9 and pg 10
TOOK: Test Unit 2 Classroom Objects
NOTES:
1. 16-19, 21-29 are squishy numbers - three words are conbined to form one
word for these numbers
example: diez y seis = dieciseis, etc...
2. all other numbers, 30-90, have a 'y' connector between the tens and the
ones
example:
33 = thirty - three (English)..... treinta y tres (Spanish)
**** the 'y' in Spanish is like the '-' in Englsh
54 = fifty - four (Englsh)........ cincuenta y cuatro (Spanish)
3. single digit writing: each number says its name
example: 281 351 8122 = dos, ocho, uno, tres, cinco, uno, ocho, uno, dos, dos
4. double digit writing: the first number says its name and the other numbers
pair up to form larger 2 digit numbers; the area code of a phone number is
treated the same as the first 3 digits of a phone numbers
example: 281 = dos, ochenta y uno
351 = tres, cincuenta y uno
8122 = ochenta y uno, veintidos
CLWK/HWK: Writing the following numbers in single digit and double digit form:
(use your vocab to avoid misspelled words)
1. 281 936 0980
