Game Strategy
Correctly answer verb questions and Pasaporte
questions thereby earning pesos and a roll of the dice that will
advance you around the gamemat towards the finish line.
Try these sample questions:
Intermediate Verb Question:
yo/beber/futuro. Answer: (Yo) beberé. I will drink.
Beginner Pasaporte Question:
What’s the capital of Peru: Lima, Quito,
Mexico City or Ottawa? Answer: Lima
To ensure that you have enough pesos at the finish line, you
should challenge your competitors’ answers at every opportunity. If
you’re right and your competitor is wrong, you pocket 200 pesos.
Everyone can play Verb it - Beginner to Advanced
Verb It
creates a level playing field since verb questions are color-coded
according to difficulty: blue
for beginner, yellow for intermediate and green for advanced.
Pasaporte questions are also geared to three-skill levels. All
three skill levels can play together with no one at a disadvantage.
Even those who don't know any Spanish can play Verb It by answering only
Pasaporte questions in English. .
Verb Tenses Geared to Three Skill Levels
Beginner
verb questions cover: the present, present progressive (or
continuous), near future and the past; plus the imperative (with tú).
Intermediate verb questions cover: future,
imperfect, imperfect progressive, conditional, past, present perfect
and present subjunctive.
Advanced verb questions cover: pluperfect,

Tailor the Game to Your Skill Level
Verb cards are
clearly marked according to verb tense making it easy for Spanish
learners or Spanish teachers to custom-tailor a game to specific
needs.
For example, intermediate players, who have not yet learned
the future tense, may simply remove those question cards from the game.
Or if players need extra practice on a particular tense, then only
include those cards in the day’s game.
If you and your friends are all advanced players, who want to
review tenses learned previously, play a game with only the beginner
and intermediate cards.
PLUS - Sprinkled along the Verb It gamemat are Pasaporte spaces that will test a player's knowledge of LatinAmerica, its history, geography, popular culture and art.
