This Spanish Medium Review quiz will continue on with an athletic approach to conjugating verbs. Here we begin with a verbs marathon! The first quiz was Grammar: Verbs 2K Run!. If you have not already taken that quiz, please do so now as its introduction will give you a little more information about this series of athletic quizzes.
You were given a number of new and old verbs to conjugate in the first athletic quiz, however, you were only given the conjugations of the irregular verbs according to their present or past tense. The first quiz was only a 2K run. Now you are in a marathon so it is going to take a little more effort on your part to remember a lot more verbs. Don’t panic. Warm up your brain muscle – do some stretches (review, repeat, review, repeat) and then jog up to the starting line. BANG you’re off….
