NOTICIAS POSITIVAS EN TIEMPOS NEGATIVOS (COVID-19)
COVID-19 HA TRAIDO UNA INUNDACIÓN PERMANENTE DE NOTICIAS NEGATIVAS. ENFERMEDAD, VIRUS, MUERTE, MALA ECONOMÍA, DESEMPLEO, DOLOR, CONFINAMIENTO, ESCUELAS CERRADAS… LA LISTA ES INTERMINABLE Y SIN EMBARGO LOS MAESTROS DEBEMOS SEGUIR ENSEÑANDO AHORA REMOTAMENTE.
CADA VEZ QUE ME REUNO VIRTUALMENTE CON MIS ESTUDIANTES PUEDO VER UN POCO DE DESESPERANZA EN SUS EXPRESIONES Y OJOS. POR ELLO DECIDÍ BUSCAR BUENAS NOTICIAS Y CONTÁRSELAS EN UN VIDEO SENCILLO Y COMPRENSIBLE. AUNQUE SÉ QUE ESTO NO CAMBIARÁ NUESTRA REALIDAD, TAMBIÉN SÉ QUE A NUESTROS JÓVENES LES GUSTA VERNOS POSITIVOS Y SABER QUE NUNCA PERDEREMOS LA ESPERANZA.
ESPERO QUE A SUS ESTUDIANTES LES GUSTEN LAS HISTORIAS TANTO COMO A LOS MIOS.

Since duolingo is constantly changing things this may or may not work.
Using the web version of duolingo. That is www.duolingo.com with a browser.
You can jump to the next checkpoint (castle with flag), and try to test out of the skills above the checkpoint.
or
At the bottom of the tree, you will see checkpoint 7 (a castle with the number 7), click on the icon and take the test. If you pass the test, this will open up the whole tree, you can then use
Fiery Cat’s Vocab per Skill Unit for the Spanish / EN Course (159 skills) to guess what is being taught in each skill.
Routines 3 teaches reflexive verbs.
Words: nos llamamos, nos levantamos, nos duchamos, lavarse, nos lavamos, me lavo, mano, se levantan, se duchan, se lavan, caras, cabello, mío, llaves, nos ponemos, nuestro, se ponen, nos sentimos, se sienten, tuyo, suyo, cepillarse, dientes, nos cepillamos, se cepillan, cepillo de dientes, cepillo, me cepillo
When taking the checkpoint 7 test, you might not know all the answers, so open an new browser tab, and use google to find out the right answer. (Your goal here is to open the whole tree, not to really “test” yourself. You want to open the whole tree, so you can go back and learn what you want, when you want.)

Our first episode features Tatiana Calderón, the only female driver in Formula 2 racing who has built a successful career, despite facing many obstacles in a sport built by and for men. Listen now: https://podcast.duolingo.com/episode-34-igualdad-en-la-pista-equality-on-the-racetrack

Episode 34: Igualdad en la pista (Equality on the racetrack)
Tatiana Calderón is the only female driver in Formula 2 racing, and she’s poised to make it to the top: Formula 1. In her career, she’s had to overcome many obstacles of a sport built by and for men–but now, she’s leading a revolution to go even further, and adapt racing cars’ design to the female body.
For the last 3 days, I have been trying to do everything to get my strength for Learning Spanish from English, Family-2 from 75% to 100%.
Nothing works.
Background: Spanish Family-2 has 5 crowns. I started Spanish when the tree was smaller but now have the current larger tree. I have successfully gotten other skills increased from 75% to 100% but not Family-2.
I have tried the following multiple times:
My hypothesis is that there is some word or words, that are necessary to get Family-2 to 100%, that are never coming up in my practices.
However, many if not all practices, are showing me pictures of abuelo, hijo, and padre for the first 3 questions.
If I go to https://www.duolingo.com/users/jimoser and look at skill 87, which is Family-2, I see the following words:
language_data --> es --> skills --> 87 --> words
I don't remember ever seeing "italiano" or "ital"_something in my web practices but I did see "italiano" or "ital"_something in my iOS or android practices.
Interestingly, when the new Spanish skill were introduced, I didn't initially have them, so I setup another account.
In this other account, Family-2 was was not at level 5, but this week I was able to raise the strength of Family-2 in that account from 50% to 75% and then from 75% to 100%, with the Chrome browser.
Possibly related to my question is Thomas.Heiss's question,
@staff Have there been any changes to your PRACTICE algorithm code and choosen difficulty level?
The website push.duolingo.com and the official Duolingo tweet about push.duolingo.com neglected to mention that
youtube: "Introducting Duolingo Push"
has closed captions in:
It's time to practice the subjunctive in Spanish.

caballo regalado no se le miran los dientes

In spanish we say ''A caballo regalado no se le busca colmillo'' meaning that you cannot be too sneaky when something is given to you free, Duolingo is completely free, and it's too awesome for what it is. Yes, the site needs a lot of improvement but again, it's free.
De: Ganas de hablar: Practicar español con videos gratis, “A caballo regalo no se le miran los dientes:
Refrán: A caballo regalado, no se le miran los dientes
Este dicho está relacionado con el hecho de que cuando nos hacen un regalo, por ejemplo, un amigo nos regala algo y a nosotros eso mucho no nos gusta, que no es bueno decir la verdad, decir: “Ay, esto no me gusta.” ¿Por qué?
Porque es un regalo y la persona que compró ese regalo para nosotros pensó que ese regalo nos iba a gustar.
Entonces si nosotros decimos de forma muy directa: “No me gusta el regalo”, estamos ofendiendo a nuestro amigo o a nuestra amiga.
Entonces esa es la idea que está detrás de este dicho: “A caballo regalado, no se le miran los dientes.”
