Week #10: Situación - Las Similitudes y Diferencias entre Tú y Luisa de Marsella, Colombia

Antes de empezar el video en FlipGrid, tú necesitas conocer a su amiga nueva, Luisa.
- Luisa es de Marsella, Colombia y, en este video, ella habla sobre su vida. 
- Necesitas mirar el video (es corto...más o menos 4 minutos) y aprender sobre ella. 
- Debes usar los subtítulos en español porque es más fácil para entender la conversación con subtítulos españoles (en "Settings - Subtitles - Spanish (Latin America)".
- Mientras miras el video, debes escribir algunas notas en la vida de Luisa porque va a hacer el próximo parte de la tarea más fácil.
Ahora, necesitas hacer un video corto via FlipGrid.

REQUISITOS DE TU VIDEO
  • 45-90 segundos en total
  • Necesitas imaginar que estás hablando con Marsella. 
  • Debes imaginar que la cámara es Luisa y debes decirle a ella las similitudes y diferences entre tú y ella.
    • Psst...(and I'll cheat and tell you this in English)...if you want some extra-credit, feel free to coerce a family member into being Luisa to ask you questions. They can read things you've prepared for them. Not required. If you don't have someone to pretend to be Luisa, just tell the camera all the things you would tell Luisa about the similarities and differences between your life and hers.
  • NO necesitas responder a los videos de tus amigos. No es un requisito este vez.
  • Tienes que divertirte. ¡Es una orden! 🙂

Week #2 - El Escape Cubano: Chapters 1 & 2

Chapter 1 - Conmigo Please watch the video below while following along with the text in the video and the audio. The glossary for the book is available on the Google Classroom assignment if you'd like to pause and reference it. In this chapter, we will meet our main character, Miguel, and also be introduced to a problem that he will face. Chapter 2 - Amigo After watching the video for chapter 1, continue to the video for chapter 2. In this video, Miguel will go to his friend Fabio's house because he has an idea.

Week #3: El Escape Cubano - Chapters 3 & 4

Our story continues where it left off last time. Miguel went home with his father after meeting with his friend Fabio. However, he was never able to talk with Fabio about his father´s planned escape. This is where we pick up with chapter 3. The plot continues straight into chapter 4 where Miguel will face a future that he had no desire for and without someone he loves very dearly. Now that you have read/listened to these 2 chapters, please comment on the bottom with a short 3-5 sentence summary of the chapters as well as with your personal reaction to the situation that Miguel faces and how this is emblematic of the conflict/problem faced by those who chose to flee Cuba.

Week #7: El Escape Cubano - Chapters 10 & 11

Our main characters are now enduring the stark reality that their journey is falling apart, as inevitably as their raft is coming apart. Their is danger in the water and they have started to lose their minds (as was evidenced by Rita hallucinating that she saw Florida). This is where we pick up the story. The story has come to its concluding chapter. Will they all make it safely to Cuba and will they be allowed to stay. For some context, this story was written and set prior to the revocation of the "Wet Foot, Dry Foot" immigration policy. If they make it to land, they will be allowed to stay.  And that brings us to the end. I hope that you found this story interesting and enlightening, to a degree, about the struggles and plights of many real people who experienced journeys very similar to the one depicted in this story. Also, I hope that you found the work done to be helpful in oral recognition and comprehension. Please respond to the Google Classroom Question with
