Question: _______ (llover) durante varias horas...
Llovia or should it be it be llovio?!?!?! I interpreted "durante muchas horas" as an ongoing action with no real beginning or ending (vague) but could "durante muchas horas" be considered an enclosed amount time making it preterite?!?!? And why not use "por" if it is preterite?
Regarding "por", in...See MoreIt could be either one, depending on the emphasis the speaker is giving. Without more context (without seeing the entire story), I would naturally put "llovia" first because it is merely to describe what the weather was like during the story. "Llovio" implies an end to the rain and the emphasis is on the period of time.
Regarding "por", in grammar, it is considered innecessary the use of "por" when specifying the duration of an activity. In English, we have to use "for", we can't leave it out when specifying the time duration. Spanish does not need "por" in this situation. "Durante" can be used to talk about duration and sounds better than using "por" to most grammarians. I know I have some Spanish for Spanish Learner books from Spain and they discourage the use of "por" in these types of sentences.
La crespaI'm not sure which state you're in but I'm pretty sure you won't be able to complete a whole teaching program online (especially language classes) plus, you'll have to student teach for 12-18 weeks with a teacher in a classroom.
We just got this book and I would like to know how you guys introduce the vocabulary. We had an old book "Ven Conmigo" and it broke it into 3 pasos. Ayuda por favor. The cuaderno de practica does not have enough activities. What do you guys do? Thanks
Hello! I'm Spanish and this year I'm teaching English in a secondary school in Spain. I'm looking for penfriends for my students. Is there any teacher interested in doing a language exchange with his students?
I have native and non-natives in the same class. I would like to implement something other than random partners for communicative exercises and collaborative work.
Any suggestions of things that have been successful for you?
I'm interested in both series. I'm looking for more communication versus grammar. Looking for high Comprehensive Input and something we could use with martinabex (which is what our MS uses). In addition looking to see how Senderos integrates the AP themes too throughout ALL levels. Thoughts for either would great!
