Guess the Event

Similar to the last activity, now you will write about a famous event that everyone should know.

Read the instructions carefully.

First, think of a famous event that we all know.

Second, use the list of verbs in the past to write a very good description of the event. Do not write the name of the event, we are going to guess (adivinar) the person.

Third, write event you think it might be after you read the description.

Remember, do not write the name of the event you are writing about!

Remember, guess the ones you think you know!

Guess the Person

Read the instructions carefully.

First, think of a famous, dead person we all know.

Second, use the list of verbs in the past to write a very good description of the person. Do not write the name of the person, we are going to guess (adivinar) the person.

Third, write the name of the person you think it after you read the description.

Remember, do not write the name of the person you are writing about!

Remember, guess the ones you think you know!
