You can teach the uses of para and por with a clear explanation of their differences.
Followed by some great (but out-of-context) examples.
Or…
You can immerse your students in a story:
A young Mexican man is offered a Saint Bernard puppy.
The puppy is incredibly cute.
He wouldn’t have to pay anything for it.
But the young man lives in a small apartment.
And he knows the cute little dog will soon become a huge dog.
What does he do?
He thinks: “Lo siento por el perro, no es para mi departamento.”
This story will hook your students while providing lots of clear, in-context examples of the uses of para and por.
The unit includes:
-
A warm-up activity to introduce the topic
-
Practical exercises to practice para and por
-
A 5-minute video with a self-grading quiz
