Spanish II

Students in Spanish II participated in a "speed chatting" activity and asked each other questions using Saber o Conocer which both mean "to know" in Spanish! Through this activity, students formulated their own questions keeping in mind the different uses of both verbs and created a slideshow to present to their peers! They had 40 seconds to chat and then switch partners!
