Students arrived and we spent 10 minutes reviewing for culture test.
Students took test (attached). For the extra credit section, students listened to four songs and wrote down the type of dance that the music represented (ballet folklórico, tango, flamenco, salsa).
Since students have enjoyed recent presentations and dialogues, we are going to do a short unit on telenovelas. We went over what a telenovela is, and came up with a list of adjectives:
* dramático
* cursi (cheesy)
* romántico
* exagerado
Students watched a few quick clips from Colombian novela Betty la fea.
Students were randomly assigned to groups of 3 and had the remaining part of class to come up with a main character for our novela. Students will quickly present their character on Tuesday and we will choose a protagonist around which our novela will be based. Students need to complete their character description for Tuesday's class. They should describe: the character's name, age, personality traits, profession and any other relevant information.
Tarea: complete character development/description of main character.
