The purpose of are video was to help Ms.Gierke’s friend Noah conjugate verbs. We Split are jobs into three parts, Visuals, The Script, and Filming. We tried are best to break down and teach the changing of verbs in past and present tenses. We were told we should do this by explaining what we did over the summer, so that Noah could develop a deeper understanding on past and present tense verbs. We hope that Noah has learned a lot from are video and that he has found it easier to communicate to others!


Did our video help you?
Is there anything about our video that we could change to make it better?
What did you like about our video?
Did you learn anything?

My group was asked to make a video for Noah on how to conjugate verbs into the Preterite forms. We each took a job and broke it down easily enough for him to understand how to change each verb into the past tense. Soon after we told Noah about our summers and conjugated the verbs as well to make sure he understood what it meant to talk in the past tense. With that my group and I wish you the best of luck in trying to communicate in Spanish

Introduction

For this Spanish project we made an Imovie. First we wanted to show the Spanish alphabet just in case your friend does not know it. The alphabet will become something you automatically will know, and make learning Spanish a little bit easier. Next we will make a tutorial for your friend to understand the AR, IR and ER present and past tense. Then we showed how to order food and after viewing it anyone will be able to do it. We’re also showing how to conjugate some of the words that we were using in the skit. The words are conjugated in the past tense.

In the project we are proud of the finished product. When we first started we didn’t have a clue as to what to write for a script or where to began. Arriving at the goals we set for our selves was hard in the beginning but we pulled together and started of things of ideas and writing our goals down. Every so often we went back to check if we were meeting the goals we set. We are especially proud of our finished project because we know how long it took u to come up with an idea that meet the goals we set. If we were to do this differently if we were giving a chance to start the project over, we would make a different script. The only question we have is why did he go to Spain not knowing one bit of Spanish.

The purpose of this project was to teach Noah, a friend of Señorita G, Spanish. We were to design a video that would explain the main topics to discuss, which  were present tense and past tense verbs.  We Our goals Ask others about what they did this summer. Name of game show: Fui en el mejor espectáculo de prueba en el mundo! Talk about what they did this summer Communicate with others The viewers will be able to enjoy speaking español. Most importantly have fun. Our group reflects on our collaboration and realizes that there are a lot of improvements that we need to make for future projects such as, time management and dividing up the work properly in the beginning to have each role run smoothly. One of the things we are proud of is our ability to come up with interesting ideas and thinking out of the box to apply Spanish in a way that would captivate an audience as well as inform effectively. A few questions we would ask Noah are - Did you prepare for your adventure to a foreign country? Why was it so important for you to travel to a country where you didn't speak their language? What complications did you face when transferring cultures and languages? What would YOU have done different if you could start your voyage over?

These goals define what success means for our project. Because our video teaches about the past verb tense, our viewers should be able to add another dimension to their conversation. Also, our video demonstrates some basic conversation skills that will allow viewers to start a friendly conversation. They should be able to use the past tense for talking about what you did over the summer. One should be able to hold a “small talk” conversation. We made this project to help teach Noah how to use some Spanish. This will teach him the past tense verbs and other familiar words. This project is basically a tutorial so Noah will be able to adjust to life in Spanish culture. We are proud of, firstly how well we worked together. Everyone took a part in producing the video and accompanying parts. The group all kept up with the check points and introduced many creative ideas. If we were to do the project over again we would have liked to have more time to polish over some of the filming in terms of pronunciation and camera quality.
