Watch the cortometraje (short film) “Cocodrilo” and take notes as you watch. You can watch the cortometraje as you like (number of times you watch, pause the video, recommended speed of Normal / .75 / .5, etc.), but keep an eye on the time for the quiz. Do not activate the CC in English or the transcript on the video; the text in both is auto-generated and is a lot of gibberish. Pay close attention to the characters, dialogue, and themes. As you watch, use the following strategies to enhance your understanding: Context Clues: Visual elements tell us A LOT about what’s going on in a situation. You might watch some or all of the video with no sound first to see what’s going on before you have to listen to what the characters say in Spanish. Use visual elements and actions in the film to help infer meaning when you don’t understand specific words or phrases. Active Listening: Focus on the dialogue and listen for key phrases or repeated words to understand the main idea. Pause and Reflect: If needed, pause the video to reflect on what has happened or to take notes on important details. Select V (verdadero) True or F (falso) False for each statement or the correct option if it is a multiple choice question.
