The adjectives you have just copied are useful in describing people’s personalities and physical characteristics. For your MAJOR grade, you will have to describe your person’s personality and physical characteristics using those adjectives AND your other vocabulary.

Pay attention: This question is asking about your personality, not how you’re doing!!! REMEMBER: Since you are answering about yourself, change your verb to the YO form: ◦ Yo soy ___________ REMEMBER: Your adjectives MUST agree with your gender: ◦ Yo soy alta. (female) ◦ Yo soy alto.(male)
Your turn: ¿Cómo eres? Escribe 5 frases sobre tu mismo, en español. (Write 5 sentences about yourself, in Spanish.) ◦ Yo soy… Height Handsome or pretty? Hair color Serious or silly? Hardworking or lazy? Now add de to say where you are from: ◦ Yo soy de Montgomery, AL. * You don’t usually need to translate the proper names of some places. Your teacher can let you know if you need to. At home, check an on-line dictionary.
¿Quién es? Now write about a classmate sitting next to you, in front of or behind you. ◦ Muy importante: don’t say the name of your classmate. Start your sentences by saying Él es or Ella es ◦ Ejemplo: Él es alto. Ella es alta. Remember to change the ending of your adjective! Share your sentences when we get done. Can people guess which classmate you have described?
