Guías de repaso

Práctica: pg 165 #10  (pay attention to how to ask and answer the questions)  This is practice for the speaking assessment below.

Directions for speaking assessment:
A) Your teacher will give you a starting location and the destination to where you would like to go.  Tell your partner where you are and ask him/her EN ESPAÑOL how to arrive at XXX location.  Then, listen and follow his/her directions.  You may ask clarifying questions in español, if needed.

B) Listen as your partner tells where he/she is currently located and where he/she wants like to go.  Give detailed instructions in Spanish using tú commands to get your partner to his/her destination.   **I strongly encourage you to review 3A vocab (places in the city) on pages 126 and 152.

You will be graded using criterion A (without interaction):  

• 1-2 Communicates info SOME of the time, ideas ARE NOT always relevant, little or no detail given, hesitation consistently affects the flow of ideas
• 3-4 Communicates info MOST of the time, ideas ARE relevant, though they contain LIMITED DETAIL, hesitation sometimes affects the flow of ideas
• 5-6 Communicates info MOST of the time, ideas ARE relevant and contain SOME DETAIL, hesitation does not affect the flow of ideas
• 7-8 CONSISTENTLY communicates information, ideas ARE relevant and DETAILED where appropriate, actively contributes to the flow of ideas...pauses are natural

Assessments will continue next class.  Keep studying for final/working on your study guide/watching You Tube Review.
