Pen pals

by Yessica Betancourt

Jan 22, 2016

Would anybody be interested in having our classes be pen pals? I want my students to use their Spanish in different ways and thought this would be a great way to do that! Let me know! Buen dia! [email removed]

Daniel Hanson Al's explanation is good. I also agree that this is something you should be asking your Spanish teacher for help.

One comment I would like to make is that the past subjunctive is more formal and less of a direct, harsh tone to it (and is what I would recommend students) in sentences like: <I>Me gustaría tener una amiguita que fuese/...See More

I have Expresate and I very much dislike it. It is
okay-ish for level I. After that, no no no.

I would be interested in trying Teacher's Discovery for
their Spanish program.

Monica :D Like Tyler and Michael, my classes are extremely rigorous. Yet I never assign homework over a holiday/break. I have never done that.

I have a ton of students coming from the same teacher and they all write answers such as: A las seis en la mañana Mariana se cepilla los dientes.

Mark Ha!! This is a topic that has come up at my school also. Some of the Latin American teachers in my school, use en. The Spaniard and I use por. For me, using en does not seems correct, but I accept it and do not mark it wrong.
