take the quiz while you are presenting. THEY will earn a separate participation grade.
D) HINTS/OTHER INFO
1. REMEMBER …if you did an activity many times, use the imperfect tense. However, if you did
something just once, use the preterite tense. (ex. Un verano, my familia y yo fuimos a Virginia. )
The imperfect tense is the focus of your project! If you do an activity now, use the present tense
2. Your project is your FINAL EXAM. Your work will be evaluated on the variety, accuracy,
organization and presentation of the information about your life. You will receive a zero for the
FINAL EXAM if you don’t turn it in. Since you have more than a week to prepare,
technological difficulties are not an excuse for tardiness.
