Un viaje con una amiga

You are planning a vacation for you and a friend. Your friend is too busy (or maybe too lazy) to come up with an itinerary, so you have to do it.

STEP 1. Research a location that you want to visit.

1. Find a city or a region of a Spanish-speaking country that you want to visit.
   • ¿Cómo se llama la ciudad o la region que vas a visitar?
   • ______________________
2. Research 2 options for each of the following categories:
   • Un restaurante para la cena (opción 1)
     • Nombre:
     • Nombre de un plato principal (look up the menu on Google):
     • Lista de ingredientes del plato principal (at least 4):
   • Un restaurante para la cena (opción 2)
     • Nombre:
     • Nombre de un plato principal (look up the menu on Google):
     • Lista de ingredientes del plato principal (at least 4):
   • Alojamiento (opción 1)
     • Tipo de alojamiento (hotel, carpa, hostal, etc.)
     • Una descripción breve (use at least 2 adjectives from 4CD Vocabulary List or  2AB Vocabulary List)
     • ¿Cuánto cuesta por noche?

     • Tipo de alojamiento (hotel, carpa, hostal, etc.)

   • Actividades (¿Qué quieres hacer?) (opción 2)
     • Quiero visitar / ver / ir a…
     • Una descripción breve. Es …
     • ¿Cuánto cuesta?

STEP 2. Prepare a script for the short video presentation you will share with your friend. The goal of this presentation is for you to share the options and the itinerary for the trip. For each of the categories listed above, you will present your two options.

In your written script, remember to use complete sentences. Be sure to include:

• An introductory sentence: Vamos a visitar… (name of city or region)
• At least two sentences using the verb querer
• At least two sentences using the verb costar
• At least two questions for your friend using gustar and preferir

STEP 3. Prepare a visual presentations showing all the options to your friend. Do not forget to include at least one picture for each option you are presenting (at least 6 pictures total). Only use keywords on your slides, not complete sentences.

STEP 4. Read your script a few times on your own, and then narrate and record your presentation. Your narrated presentation should be between 1.5 and 2.5 minutes in length.

STEP 5. Post your video online as a discussion post AND upload your script to your LMS.

STEP 6. It is time to chose your itinerary. Go watch your assigned partner’s video and write about which options you prefer for each category in the comments section. Be sure to mention what you like and do not like about each option and justify your answer. Your written answer should include full sentences. Be sure to include answers to the following four questions in your response and include why or why not.

• ¿Qué te gusta?
  • Modelo: Me gusta(n)_____ porque…
• ¿Qué no te gusta?
• ¿Qué prefieres?
• ¿Qué no prefieres?
