Spanish Irregular Verbs 85 Translations with Adverbs and Direct Object Pronouns

(0)
This worksheet contains the most common present tense irregular verbs, adverbs of frequency, and 17 sentences that include direct object pronouns. The direct object pronoun words are bolded to remind students that there is something special about the words. Sample verbs used are oír, poner, venir, ir, decir, hacer, traer, salir, dar, saber and conocer. Each different verb is grouped together with 5-7 different subjects so students get repetition of the same verb. There is a word bank containing 14 vocabulary words to assist students with their sentence translations. Note that several of the translations are phrases (most notably for the verb poner) to give students the necessary conjugation practice without introducing too many new vocabulary words. This is a great activity for students to work on as a substitute teacher lesson, and also for back to school review for experienced Spanish students. The answer key is included. 4 pages
