Spanish III

Course Description

In Spanish III we will continue to build on prior knowledge and skills in Spanish. Students will have extensive choice in what vocabulary topics will be covered. We will strengthen conversational skills we already learned about speaking in the present and the past, and will begin to learn to talk about the future.

In Spanish class we will work on classwork based on textbooks and workbooks, we will practice speaking activities collaboratively, we will listen to and sing songs to practice and for memorization, and we will practice vocabulary and grammar by playing virtual classroom games. We will create presentational projects that demonstrate knowledge and skill using role-playing and virtual touring. We will learn about other cultures by hearing about what it is like to live in other countries and by visiting new places virtually. Student learning will be assessed by testing listening, reading, writing, conversational speaking, and presenting.

The focus for this week will be to prepare and complete the final exam. I will distribute them during the Monday class. If you have not finished by the end of the class, I will safely collect the materials and re-distribute them on the Wednesday class and you will have the full Wednesday class to work on the final exam. You will need to turn in all the final exam materials by the end of the Wednesday class session.

Take time to review the study guide file posted to the final exam assignment in Teams.

Wednesday: For today, I created a conjugation practice activity that will have you writing five basic conjugation sentences:

  1. Open the Conjugation Preterit power point.
  2. Open the quizlet program, and go to the set ‘A3 Verbos -ar.’ Start with the verb that corresponds with your birth month. For example, if you were born in March, go to the third one, ‘llegar.’
  3. Randomly choose a different pronoun by entering pronouns into a random wheel on wheeldecide.com
  4. Write a simple sentence using the verb, and choose a random conjugation using your manipulative.

‘Pronoun’ + ‘verb’

Example: Nosotros llegamos.

  1. Move to the next verb in the list and do this again four more times. If you get to the last verb, start again at the beginning.
  2. Then, go to the -er verbs quizlet set and start with the first one, and make five more sentences using -er verbs and random pronouns.
  3. In total, you should have ten simple sentences using preterit tense -ar and -er/-ir verbs.
