Falling leaves

You must shed the leaves to get the new ones next Spring.

Reprise of miserable faces (the 2nd conjugations test)

No, I don’t enjoy torturing poor children. I derive no joy in seeing them squirm and cry over impossible tests.

No. What I want to do is drill in solid Spanish, get kids to pass the AP test, form bilingual students. But sometimes my motivation exceeds theirs.

This was try #2 to get these victims pupils to conjure up present, preterit, imperfect and commands — all in one test. 😦  Apparently, I ruined their day at the Lighthouse Christian Academy in Santa Monica.

I’m going to stop giving this test and hope they catch it in the future. This time I went blue too.
