Introduction: We will use this blog post to complete several exercises during the class. Pay attention to the instructions for each task and work with your partners to complete it.

Task 2: Preposition Practice - You already practiced hand gestures for these prepositions with your teacher. Now it's time for you to practice with your partners. In each group one person will be the leader. The leader will do different gestures and the partners will say the preposition they see. The leader will go quickly so that it is difficult. Then after a minute, the leader will not do anymore gestures. He or she will only say a preposition and the partners have to do the corresponding gesture. After a few minutes, you can change the leader and try again.

Task 5: Office Vocabulary Game - For the vocabulary game you are going to describe different objects we can find in an office. In your group you need to make two teams. Team A and Team B. Then click the link to find the picture you will describe. For the first round Team A will take 5 minutes to describe their picture to Team B to see how many words they can guess. If they don't know the word in English, they can say it in Spanish. Then it is time for Team B to describe their words. They have 5 minutes to describe their picture to see how many words Team A can guess.
