Respond to Peers: Read through your classmates’ posts. Choose two different posts, and ask one question to each classmate, in Spanish, to elicit more information (Due by Day 5). Also, respond to one of the questions posed by your classmates in response to your initial post (Due by Day 5). |
|
|
|
Note: You will have a minimum of four posts, in Spanish, in this forum: · Your initial post (Due by Day 3) · A question posed to classmate 1 (Due by Day 5) · A question posed to classmate 2 (Due by Day 5) · An answer to a question posed by a classmate in response to your initial post (Due by Day 7) |
|
|
|
Tips for success: · Post your initial response by Day 3. If you post late, you may not have a question from a classmate to respond to in order to fulfill that portion of the prompt. · As you interact with peers, please look for posts that don’t have questions from classmates first. That way, we can ensure that everyone has an opportunity to practice both asking and answering questions. |
