コンジュゲモス！パート 2 - 現在 FLEX のスペイン語の不規則動詞 Ser、Estar、Tener

Come conjugate a few very useful Spanish verbs in the context of fun sentences and silly stories in this flexible schedule (no live meetings) course! This class is designed for learners who have at least a little background in Spanish, which can motivate them to improve verb conjugation skills with the aim of growing in conversation ability. Please note that this is not a Spanish immersion course, and English explanations will be used to aid in understanding of the material. This course assumes some knowledge of personal subject pronouns and how they relate to verb conjugations. For those who do not have any previous practice with personal subject pronouns, I recommend first taking my course "¡Conjuguemos! Parte 1."

Here is the layout for this course:
Week 1 - Present tense "ser" (to be) conjugations
Week 2 - Present tense "estar" (to be) conjugations and basic distinctions from ser
Week 3 - Present tense "tener" (to have) conjugations
Week 4 - Review and practice choosing which verb to use given context

Each week has five main components:
1. Pre-recorded lesson 
2. Written homework worksheet 
3. Learner-to-learner activities*
4. A brief passage to read in Spanish (which uses the verb types we are working on)**
5. Kahoot quiz

*Our learner-to-learner interaction activities for this class include:
1. Conjugation tag:
I "tag" someone by telling them a verb in the infinitive form and a pronoun to conjugate it with. They are "it" until they conjugate the verb correctly AND they give someone else a verb and a pronoun to conjugate with it, and so on.
2. Silly sentence challenge:
Picking one or more verbs from the week, each learner writes a silly sentence. Strive for grammatically correct, but it does not have to make logical sense! Then you will decide one classmate's silly sentence to nominate to win the "frases chistosas" challenge.
3. Sentence string game:
I start a sentence and add on "y" (and) then a new subject. The next person continues the sentence with a verb conjugated for that pronoun I gave and adds "y" with another pronoun for the next person to use, and so forth until we have created a long sentence together. 

**I provide a recording of my reading of the passage and ask learners to record their readings in an audio or video file and submit for feedback. I provide personalized video or audio feedback on weekly video or audio homework submissions. 

Most of the stories and sentences from the lessons and worksheets are written by me, the instructor. Sometimes I may incorporate the work of others, but only when it is in the public domain or I have expressly received permission from the creator.
