Overview

This novice mid to novice high Spanish activity requires students to use interpretive listening skills as they listen to an authentic resource. The included video is an interview with a native speaker from Madrid. Students are encouraged to gather basic information such as name, nationality, and greeting styles. After gathering this information students participate in an interpersonal communicative task as they hold a similar conversation with a partner. Finally, they use presentational skills to present to one of their classmates.
