Imperfect tense practice: Clue words, Conjugation, and Sentences

Part 1: For each clue word, write the English translation. For each infinitive, write the conjugation in the imperfect tense. (25 clue words and infinitives)

Sample:

Hablar / Yo ___________________

Note: A table with -ar, -er, -ir imperfect tense endings and conjugations of Ser, Ir, Ver is included for reference.

Part 2: Sentence practice: For each subject write the imperfect tense conjugation and add 4-5 words to create an original sentence. Avoid repetition (using the same words over and over). Be sure that your sentence makes sense. Do not use clue words (cada día etc) in your sentences. No collaboration or on-line translators. (10 sentences total)

Sample:

Hablar: Yo _____________ (imperfect conjugation) + ___________________ (add 4-5 words).

Answer key is included on pages 3-4 for part 1 only. For part 2, student answers will vary.
