Descriptions

This video is a very practical lesson on describing people. It was a very good refresher on the basics learned in Spanish 101/102. Some of the descriptions are to follow:

Describing people---

Pelo: rubia, negro, canas, blanco, rojo, calvo

Ojos: azules, verdes, negros, marrones, café

Alta, baja

Gordo, Delgado

Guapo, feo

Fea, bonita

Viejo, vieja, joven

Barba

Blanco, negro

After presenting each picture describing the vocabulary, the teacher forms sentences. He asks whether the sentence is true or false and gives the viewer time to respond before giving the answer. This section is called: Cierto o falso. Finally, for further review he quizzes the viewer and asks him or her to complete the sentences. This is a simple, yet useful exercise in conversation. I really enjoyed it.
