Keep in mind that everything in the review chapter contains material that you should already know.  Every year I have students who say...
"We never learned that!"
O.K.  ...BUT... it's presented to you here and that means you are going to have learn it NOW.  For some of you, it will be easy to remember things from last year.  Other students may feel like they have never seen it... it's what I call "Summer Amnesia".  If you are one of the students who has "Summer Amnesia" then you need to plan on getting extra help NOW.  Everything you learn in Spanish is a building block!  If you don't understand the basics of conjugating in the preterite, believe me that it will come back to haunt you in the 3rd quarter when we learn about the imperfect subjunctive.  If you don't remember how to do commands, believe me it will come back to haunt you in the 3rd quarter when we learn the present subjunctive....and so on!  Each new chapter contains at least one point of grammar that is review from last year and 2 other points they are new.  

Last but not least, the 4th quarter we will take EVERYTHING that we have learned and apply it to reading an entire novel in SPANISH.  
You can do this!

Concordancia con adjetivos:
Adjectives go after the noun they modify :
The mischievious boy
El chico travieso
 
They agree in gender and number the noun they modify :
The mischievious girl
 la chica traviesa

Some adjectives end in E and don't have to agree in gender... but they do agree in number :
él es inteligente
ella es inteligente
ellos son inteligentes

All adjectives of number, quantity or amount go IN FRONT of the noun they modify :
Hay muchos chicos en la clase
No hay ningún libro que me interesa
Ella es la primera chica que yo besé


Malo and Bueno are 2 adjectives that con go in front OR after the noun they modify...
but you have to drop the O in front of a masculine, singular noun :

Hace mal tiempo
Paco es un mal chico ....or.... Paco es un chico malo
Ana es una mala chica  ....or.... Ana es una chica mala


Grande can go in front of the noun or after just like malo and bueno, but it changes it's meaning depending on how you place it.


This is a big book                             This is a great book
Este es un libro grande                    Este es un gran libro
Estos son unos libros grandes         Estos son unos grandes libros

If you place it after... it means big                 If you place it before... it means great
