Español IV 02-15-08

  • Encuesta: Partner oral about one’s workplace skills, from homework survey sheet. Afterwards, we debriefed with suggestions about appropriate answers in a job interview.
  • HANDOUT: Las 20 preguntas más comunes de entrevistas de empleo. I distributed this handout and we discussed their meaning and then some approaches to answering them. These will be used as a part of our in-class job interview orals.
  • We debriefed the first part of the Herramientas article. Please remember to bring this with you on Tuesday, as we will continue going over it.
  • We watched the first 15 minutes of Eloise Goes to School – in Spanish (Gracias por tu ayuda, Carlos)
  • Tarea:
    1. I distributed a handout about writing a paragraph regarding a real job (paid or volunteer) you would like to have and how your skills would be a good match. The paragraph is due on Tuesday.
    2. Write up a resume, using the guidelines I distributed, or go to trabajos.com and look under currículo.
