Description
Part 1 -( Discussion Post: )
In this discussion you will imagine that you are sick and use the vocabulary and verbs (doler, tener) in Chapter 3 to describe your symptoms (aprox. 50 words in Spanish). Be sure to complete this initial post by Thursday at midnight.
By Sunday at midnight respond briefly to 2 of your peers in Spanish (aprox. 25 words for each response). Pretend that you are a health care professional and ask them follow up questions about their illness or try to diagnose it. If you receive questions about your illness, responding back to your peers can also count as your peer responses.
You will want to compose your posts on a word document or notepad, then paste it onto the discussion screen. You can only put in the accent marks when writing in Word, and this week we will be assessing your use of accents.
