This 37 slide PowerPoint presentation teaches about Miguel de Cervantes novel Don Quixote using a variety of adjectives. It is written in simple Spanish that the students can easily understand. It gives the simple history about the novel, describes both Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, it tells where the story takes place and describes the area of La Mancha. The presentation also describes the funniest scene in the book- the attack of the windmill. The presentation is illustrated by various types of art and artists. For those of you using the textbook Buen Viaje, it aligns with chapter one. The adjectives used in the presentation are: famoso, joven, viejo, gracioso, loco, rico, honesto, sincero, generoso, canoso, valiente, pobre, bajo, gordo, moreno, leal, alto, delgado, buenisimo, bonito, grande, anciano, historico, cultural, bueno and espanol.
LOVE this PowerPoint. Very Creative. I made a few minor adjustments for my classes and added a supplemental handout. Wonderful quality overall. Thanks!
This is a great resource! I'm going to use it to introduce Don Quijote before reading a shorter version with my 8th grade immersion students. Thanks so much!

Great power point, my students were able to practice the adjectives and learned a little about a famous Spanish novel.
Great intro to Don Quijote, and lots of good examples of adjective agreement, with excellent illustrations. No activities for student practice, however, and a couple of minor errors which need to be corrected.
