Un acróstico

 

This is an introductory project/presentation with two parts.  The first part is written and the second is oral to help get you comfortable speaking in front of the class.  It is understandable that you may be a little nervous, but presentations generally last less than a minute.

 

Written requirements:

Print your Spanish name vertically (going down) the left side of your paper in CAPITAL letters.  Make sure these letters fill the page.

Choose an adjective in Spanish that describes you for each letter and continue writing it after each capital letter.  Be sure that the adjective will describe you as a boy or as a girl.

Draw a small picture next to EACH adjective to illustrate it.  You may also use computer graphics.

Color your letters and your pictures.

5.           Hand this paper in with your project.
