1 Escribe en espanol (¡usa el pretérito!): 1.I played the guitar last night. 2.We practiced Spanish yesterday. 3.I played baseball last week. 4.They looked for hats last month. Yo toqué la guitarra anoche. Nosotros practicamos el español ayer. Yo jugué al béisbol la semana pasada. Ellos buscaron gorras el mes pasado.

2 Objetivos: practicar el vocabulario de compras y los pretéritos – revisar la tarea – escribir (hoja) escribir apuntes sobre pronombres de objeto directo y practicar – escribir (hoja)

3 Preterite tense – used to talk about actions that were completed in the past / already happened To form the preterite tense of regular -ar verbs in Spanish: 1.Drop the –ar ending 2.Add the appropriate ending for the subject being talked about The Preterite of –ar Verbs

4 (yo) é nosotros amos (tú) aste (él / ella / Ud.) ó (ellos / ellas / Uds.) aron *note accents in yo & él/ella/Ud. forms!* Verbs that end in -car and -gar have a spelling change in the yo form only of the preterite. car: c=>qu buscar => yo busqué gar: g=>gu pagar => yo pagué AR verbs (like jugar) that have a stem- change in the present tense do not have a stem change in the preterite.

5 Direct Object Pronouns Direct objects receive the action of a verb - they answer the question “Whom?” or “What?” about a verb. – I bought shoes. o I bought what? Shoes. – In Spanish: Compré zapatos.

6 Pronouns take the place of nouns. So, direct object pronouns take the place of direct object nouns. – Previous example in English: I bought shoes. – With a direct object pronoun: I bought them. Ejemplos en español: –Yo compré zapatos. -- Yo los compré. –Tengo el libro. -- Lo tengo. –Llevo la gorra. -- La llevo.

7  In English, him, her, it, and them are examples of direct object pronouns.  In Spanish, the direct object pronoun must agree in gender and in number with the noun it is replacing. Direct Object Pronouns: SingularPlural lo [it, him, you (masc. Usted)] los [them, all of you] la [it, her, you (fem. Usted)] las [them, all of you (fem.)]

8  Direct object pronouns are placed directly before the conjugated verbs. –Busco los calcetines. – Los busco. –Tengo una gorra. – La tengo.  When an infinitive follows the conjugated verb, the direct object pronoun can be placed before the conjugated verb or attached to the infinitive.  Por ejemplo: – No voy a comprar la hamburguesa. No la voy a comprar. Or: No voy a comprarla.

9 ¡A practicar! Rewrite each sentence using a direct object pronoun in place of the noun. Modelo: Como la pizza. -- La como. 1.Tengo los diccionarios. 2.Bebo el café. 3.Busqué los zapatos en mi dormitorio. 4.Miro las pulseras en la joyería. 5.Como las zanahorias en el almuerzo. Los tengo. Lo bebo. Los busqué. Las miro en la joyería. Las como en el almuerzo.
