Spanish 1 or 2 - story idea - didn't know how to dance!

*Disclaimer* The beauty of storytelling is that you really could use a story in any level. The complexity of your backstory or how you go about solving the problem is really defined by each level.  For example, you might be able to have way more complex dialogue in upper levels and ask the class things like, "what would you do if he/she said that to you!?"

Here's a story idea that I used in Spanish 2 a week or two ago:

Structures:


  • No sabía bailar (S/he didn't know how to dance)
  • Le dijo, “Voy a regresar pronto” (S/he said to him/her, "I am going to return soon")
  • Le dio lecciones (s/he gave him/her lessons)



Some previous words I wanted to review:

  • s/he saw
  • s/he went towards
  • s/he wanted to dance
  • s/he was
  • s/he left (came out of)
  • s/he said to him/her

It's a pretty simple one.  Someone was at a party or in a club. They wanted to dance. They saw someone, went towards them, they told them, "I want to dance with you." Or asked, "Do you want to dance with me?"
