Querido Estudiante de Español III Pre-Diploma:
Bienvenido(a) a la clase de español III pre-diploma. Attach you will find the assignments necessary
to complete for Level III of Spanish. It is imperative that you complete these assignments over the
summer. If you have any questions, you may e-mail me: [email protected]
ALL THE ACTIVITIES WILL BE TURN IN THE SECOND DAY OF SCHOOL – Tuesday, August 9th, 2016.
A. Summer GRAMMAR review and practice:
I am including a list of verbs that is imperative for you to study. My recommendation is that you
practice the conjugation of these verbs in the present, imperfect, preterit, preterit vs imperfect,
formal commands & informal commands affirmative and negative. Also, review: ser vs estar,
direct/indirect object pronouns, comparison & agreement. You will be working with this over the
summer to come ready to learn new concepts and vocabulary. Think of which practices are best for
you personally…perhaps the ones that gave you the most challenge this year. We will have an
assessment on the second week of school. Please visit www.conjuguemos.com for practice.

Podcasts available in Spanish. There are some designed to teach Spanish as well as some for
