Hello, Hamden Teachers! Have a question or need help finding something? Leave a comment below and we’ll be happy to help!
I’ll work on these this week! It might take just a bit to get those changes made. For “Let’s Go Shopping,” we don’t have one unit, but we have lessons where they buy/order mixed in different units. What are they shopping for in your unit?
Not at this time. However, if you look at the units for specific celebrations (birthdays, Day of the Dead, Thanksgiving, Happy Holidays, New Years, Love is in the Air, etc), there are a lot there that will give you a good start. We are giving Chinese and AP a lot of attention right now. Eventually we’ll get back into those other units.
I think you took it off HMS but it should only have come off HHS. So HMS Y2 U5 should be Planning a week in the city and HHS Y2 U5 is the Ecotourism
Added a week in city back on HMS.
Hola Kara y Megan,
Espero que vosotras y sus familiares esteis todos bien.
Hi Janice! Same to you! I have those switched around now.
Good afternoon Kara,
Hope all is well. I just noticed, that although the resource for Myths and Legends was moved to the first position, the rest of the info stayed the same (ie. the title shows National and Ethnic Identities and the Hamden Approved Curriculum is off). Please let me know if you need additional information in order to fix this.
And just for clarification the order of units should be as follows:
Unit 1 Myths and Legends
Unit 2 National and Ethnic Identities
Unit 3 Education and Careers
Unit 4 Health and Medicine
Unit 5 Social Conscience
Thanks so much!
Got it! Check it out now. I can’t see your links, so make sure I moved those correctly as well.
Done!
I have 2 suggestions for you to look at for that Level 1 Unit 3 “All work, no play”. First, the “Kites” would be great for middle school. If you want that, I could get those handouts for Chinese and Italian pretty quickly. Second, now that I’ve seen your unit goals, here is a page that has some ideas for a future unit called “the Weekend” that we want to make one day. https://www.adiostextbook.com/english/weekend/
Hello!
Would anyone be able to grant me access to the Hamden documents for the first unit for Spanish 3 ?
Thanks!
Hello Valeria! Those Hamden documents are owned by Hamden, so you’ll need to ask Beth for access. Let me know if you need anything else from us.
