Students will love this PowerPoint! They will practice the imperfect by reliving some of their childhood memories.
Each slide contains images of toys, games, music, TV or movies from the past.
Add some of your own childhood memories to the first few slides.
Be very nostalgic as you talk about what you used to do when you were a kid. Use as many imperfect verbs as you can.
The idea is to create a strong sense of memory of repeated actions in the past--an atmosphere where students can feel the imperfect tense.
Keywords: imperfect, imperfecto, preterite vs. imperfect,

I have 23 years of experience in the classroom. I've taught Spanish most of my career, with a few years of Language Arts thrown in. I spent 13 years at the middle school level, and am in my 9th year at high school. I love both levels, and often can't believe how lucky I am to be in this profession. I taught a Spanish Teaching Methods course at BYU as an adjunct professor for two semesters, and loved that experience. When I retire from public school, my goal is to get a doctorate and start a second career at the university level.
