Looking for a fun way to practice the Spanish conditional tense? This product is the one for you! Each slide contains a picture and a description of an awkward or difficult situation. The students are then asked, "¿Qué harías?" You can use it in several different ways: Make it a group writing competition. They look at each picture and read the description. They have two minutes to write as many sentences as they can (using the Conditional tense) telling what they "would do" in each scenario. You can play a similar game, but speaking instead of writing. It can be done individually or in groups. Use each slide as an individual writing prompt. You set the amount of words necessary and the time limit. Use as a bell ringer activity. Show the picture at the door and have students give you one sentence as they are entering the class. This lesson is designed for a 42 minute class if you are using option 1 above. Normally, we do not finish every slide. PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT AN EDITABLE PRODUCT. Included are a read-only PowerPoint and a Google Slides version.
