 100 most common verbs.ods | 17.04 KB |
Today was all about verbs.
Students arrived and filled in all the verbs they know on the attached 100 most common verbs. We went over the list as a class.
We reviewed the concept of an infinitive verb -- which is the "complete" verb -- comer = to eat, trabajar = to work. There are 3 types of infinitive verbs in Spanish -- verbs ending in -ar, -er, -ir and the -er/-ir verbs often act in the same way.
We also reviewed present tense verb conjugations. Students competed in board races practicing conjugation of present tense regular verbs, and then I added some irregulars.
Tarea: make 50 notecards of the 100 most common verbs, Spanish on one side and English on the other. Also, review preterite conjugation, for ar verbs (é, aste, ó, amos, aron) for er/ir (í, iste, ió, imos, ieron).
