Extra in-class activity:
Students participate in a role play activity. One of them is at a bank asking for a loan. The customer service representative must ask questions about the thing this person has, how old they are, how many children they have and other important information about their families that might help him/her decide whether they approve the loan or not. They could improvise or plan some of the questions and answers ahead, practice and then do the role play in front of the class. The idea behind the activity is that they can relate knowledge about this and other topics and use the verb TENER in Spanish the best way possible. The teacher must provide feedback during the process and once they have finished.
