1. Study your vocab every day at least 5 to 10 minutes--either say it out loud, write it out, draw it, act it out--do what helps you!2. Use your agenda; be organized. Keep your binder in order, according to the syllabus.3. Retake all quizzes and tests as soon as possible when you find out you failed one (you must first schedule and attend a tutoring session with teacher to retake a test).4. Make it real! Watch Spanish TV, listen to Spanish radio, use Spanish internet links, read a newspaper or magazine in Spanish, watch DVD's in Spanish with subtitles in English...do something you like in Spanish and it will become more meaningful and exciting to you!Typing Letters with Accents, Etc.To do the following, you hold down the "Alt" button and type the numbers using the number key pad.Windows ALT codes for Spanish
