Preterit vs Imperfect in Spanish - A comprehensible input video story

Preterite vs Imperfect - How do you know which one to use? https://goo.gl/8F6dwf

Our students are often confused about when to use the two past tenses the Preterite and Imperfect. These two past tenses are a complex grammar topic for second language learners to grasp. In Spanish, both the preterite and imperfect tenses may be used to talk about the past. Which one is used depends on the meaning the speaker wishes to convey.

As teachers, we have all types of tricks and tools up our sleeves to help our students grasp the differences between preterit and imperfect. We put together this video recently to help teachers show the preterite and imperfect verb tenses in Spanish in use with a real story that actually happened on one of our medical Spanish immersion programs.

In addition to the video, we've built a great mini-lesson comparing and contrasting the uses of the preterite and imperfect verb tenses though this video and an authentic text about a young musician trying to make a life in Mexico City. The full lesson is filled with authentic and realistic ways for students to learn the differences between these two verbs. We include acronyms for preterite tense and acronyms for imperfect tense use. We've built a multi-step lesson that you can use, tweak, differentiate and implement in your classes. Have fun with it!
