    You and your partner are security guards. Unfortunately, your monitors are not working very well. You’ll have to work together to get a complete view of the situations on campus. For each location, start with camera 1. If your camera 1 is working, describe to your partner what you see. How many of the objects can you name? What is happening in this location? How many -ar verbs can you use? If your camera 1 isn’t working, your partner will describe the scene. You’ll then do the same with camera 2, which gives another view of the same location.

    Active -ar verbs:

    ayudar
    bailar
    caminar (al perro) (to walk [the dog])
    cantar
    enseñar
    escuchar
    estudiar
    hablar
    llamar
    llegar
    mirar
    regresar

    		 New -ar verbs:

    tocar guitarra (eléctrica)
    masticar (to chew up)
    destrozar (to destroy)
    pilotear (to pilot)

    Extra words:

    la cabra (goat)
    el caimán (alligator)
    el dinosaurio
    el/la extraterrestre (llegar)
    el robot
