Students arrived and ready two quick texts about how students spent their vacations and had to answer some questions.
Students conversed briefly in pairs about their break and what they did.
Palabra del día: pasarlo bien (to have fun, literally, to pass it well)
We learned some vocabulary to express opinions:
- tienes razón
- (no) estoy de acuerdo
- tiene sentido
- en mi opinión
- (no) creo que...
- (no) pienso que...
Students were split into groups and had a few minutes to prepare their side of the debate (Mexico is better than Argentina/Argentina is better than Mexico). One student presented opening arguments and students will have a few minutes on Thursday for their 1 minute reaction.
Tarea: we will have a quick quiz on the phrases of the day on Thursday so students should study their personal dictionaries.
