Mini-unit #2: Gramtica: e-ie stem-changing verbs and Direct Object Pronouns
Phillip Ketcham 2. Students learn to effectively conjugate stem-changing verbs and place Direct Object pronouns within a present tense sentence. Students will generalize key grammar concepts for conjugating and forming simple present tense.
Phillip Ketcham This arrangement of mini-units was designed to lead students into a foundational knowledge of verb conjugation in the present tense, forming simple sentences in the present tense, and general knowledge of informational facts and important cultural and geographic features in Spain. The mini-units are sequenced to lead students from the simple to the more complex activities as they progress through the entire unit. The unit arrangement also takes into account the skills and understandings necessary for the next mini-unit and builds them into student activities in readiness of the next level. The role of the teacher changes as the unit is taught, with the teacher directed presentation in the mini-unit # 1 where much basic information is provided to discussion and individual work in mini-units # 2 and # 3 to student-initiated research and construction of group presentations in mini-unit # 4.

Giving Students a Rationale for the Unit The teacher will begin the introduction with telling the students his or her personal experience in Spain as a student studying abroad. He or she will tell the students of living in Spain and learning the language, culture, traditions and etc., of the country. After giving a brief introduction to life in Spain, the teacher will lead a class discussion over important questions such as: Does it matter to study the Spanish language? Why is it important to know and understand Spanish culture? How does Spanish affect the students everyday lives? As the students respond to these questions, the teacher will write down all meaningful responses to the questions. The teacher then will point out that by studying the language of Spanish and its culture, the individual students becomes a more rounded individual and student who is capable of learning at a high level.
Phillip Ketcham Reviewing Entry Behaviors Students are assembled in small groups, their tasks and roles (group convener, recorder, time keeper, materials person etc.) re-explained. Each group will then be asked to prepare questions for what their group will research and learn about the geography, demographics, culture etc., of Spain. Students will be asked to evaluate each other on the amount of effort and contribution the individual puts toward the group. Students will ask certain questions such as: what are positive and negative attitudes about the group presentation? How can the group work better as a cohesive unit? Providing a Structured Overview of the Unit The teacher distributes a handout which explains in outline form the entirety of the unit in which the students are asked to place in their notebook. The teacher will explain each of the four mini-units including the group presentation in miniunit #4. During this time the teacher will field any questions about assignments or activities that the students may have about the unit. Any other handouts containing the unit objective, sub-objectives, schedules for when assignments and quizzes or presentations are due (due dates), rubrics or checklists, and anything that will be useful in familiarizing the student with the teachers expectations should be given to the students (See Appendix A). Building in Experiential Background In order to set the mood for the unit, the teacher will play Spanish music while the students work in their cooperative groups. Throughout the unit, as the students learn more about the culture in Spain, the teacher will show videos and pictures from personal experience in Spain (i.e. bull fights). Also, the teacher will bring one day to class, a certain cuisine that is unique to Spain. All these activities are to be done in order that students feel like they are experience Spain and its culture. Reassuring Students After the teacher tells the students the overview, schedule of assignments, and rubrics or checklist for the group presentations, the students should have a good idea of what is expected of them. The teacher should end this class period on an upbeat note by employing humor or a game which will relax the students about their (hopefully they have none) concerns for the upcoming unit.

STEM CHANGING VERBS HANDOUT Remember, there are three types of infinitives: -ar, -er, -ir. Infinitives are made up of two parts: the ending and the stem. You already know how to conjugate verbs in the present tense, so the actual conjugation is easy. With stem change verbs we are adding the step of making a small vowel spelling change in the stem in all forms of the conjugation except the nosotros and vosotros. In the present tense, there are three groups of stem-changing verbs: e-ie, o-ue, and e-i. We will do e-ie first: Notice the 2nd e in the stem is bold, thats the e we will change to ie. Verb meani stem ng to empi begin, ez start yo t l/ell a ud. Empi eza nosotros vosotros ellos/e (as) (as) llas Empeza mos uds. Empezi empiez s an
Empe zar
Empi ezo
Empie zas
Here are some common e-ie stem change verbs: Advertir to warn Descender to go down Pensar to think Ascender to go up Atravesar Cerrar to cross to close Comenzar to begin
Divertirse Entender Despertarse Mentir to have to to wake up to lie fun understand Perder to lose Preferir to prefer Sentir Quebrar to break Confesar Querer to want Negar
Recomendar Sentarse
Phillip Ketcham
to recommend
to sit down
to feel
to confess to deny
Notice the verb Recomendar, there are 2 es in the stem: Recomend When this happens you use the 2nd e for the stem change Therefore I recommendis Recomiendo and NOT Riecomendo.

Spanish has dozens of verbs that might be called "regular irregular" verbs verbs that are irregular but are irregular in a consistent way. These verbs are known as stem-changing or radical-changing verbs, because what makes them irregular is that only the stem (the part of the verb that comes before -ar, -er or -ir) changes. For example, any form of the regular verb hablar, whatever the tense or mood, starts with habl-. But the verb volar, which usually means "to fly," can have its stem change. Fortunately, the stem of verbs like volar change in a predictable way, and that is that the o changes to ue whenever it is stressed. When them stem isn't stressed, it remains unchanged. Thus, the singular present indicative forms all change: vuelo (I fly), vuelas (you fly), vuela (he/she/you fly). But the first- and secondperson plural forms do not: volamos (we fly), volis (you fly). The third-person plural form changes: vuelan (they fly). The same pattern the o changing to ue when stressed follows for all other forms. You can see how this works by looking at the complete conjugation of contar. Other verbs that are conjugated in exactly the same way are acordar, acostar, apostar, comprobar, consolar, costar, demostrar, encontrar, mostrar, probar, recordar, rodar, soltar, sonar and soar. A similar pattern can be seen with verbs such as mover. The stem of mover changes in the same way as do the stems of voler and contar, but the verb has some differences in conjugation because it is an -er verb rather than an -ar verb. Verbs that are conjugated in the same way as mover include conmover, doler, promover, remover, and
Phillip Ketcham
soler. The same goes for dormir, which, except for the stem, follows the pattern of other -ir verbs. There are a few verbs that have the o-to-ue stem change but are also irregular in other ways. For example, morir is conjugated in the same way as dormir, except morir also has an irregular past participle. And oler follows the pattern except than an h is added at the beginning of the word when it is stressed on the first syllable.
Phillip Ketcham
E to I STEM CHANGING VERBS HANDOUT: With some verbs, the stem also changes when you conjugate them. In the present tense, there are three groups of stem-changing verbs: o:ue e:ie e:i
With the third group of stem-changing verbs, the letter e in the stem changes to i in all forms except the nosotros and vosotros. repetir repito repites repite repetimos repets repiten
Here's another e:i stem changing verb. Compare it to the regular verb vivir. Notice that the endings are the same for regular verbs and stem-changing verbs.
Phillip Ketcham
competir (e:i) vivir (regular -ir verb) compito vivo compites vives compite vive competimos vivimos compets vivs compiten viven
Here's another e:i stem-changing verb. Notice how the stem doesn't change in the nosotros and vosotros forms. pedir (e:i) pido pides pide
