Here is the research guideline for you, in case you were not in class while distributed.

In class, we saw a power point presentation with  the 21 countries that speak Spanish as their official language.

1. Pick one country of those 21 we discussed,  not Mexico… (unless your family is from there. Why?.. I’d would be nice to know more about other countries, since you are very familiar with Mexican culture already!)

2. Take a look at the  questions, research the answers. You can use web pages, or books from the library.

3. Type the questions and answers,  print  and bring them back for next class.

DUE DATE:

 clase 8 – 121:  Wednesday, October 12th.

clase 8 – 123: Thursday, October 13th.

Gracias.

We will share them on our next Spanish class ( OCT 6th)!. You might want to use a dictionary or google translate.
