Conjugating Spanish Reflexive Verbs

Activity Overview

Practicing the conjugation of reflexive verbs is very important for first time learners. Have students complete the following storyboard exercise to practice this skill and to fit the forms into simple contexts. Students can be directed to use the present tense, preterite tense, or the imperfect tense depending on their level.

Students should select the grid layout, and treat the cells like a verb chart, placing their selected reflexive verb into each cell according to the different subject pronoun conjugations of yo, tú, él/ella/Ud., nosotros, vosotros, and ellos/ellas/Uds. In each cell, students will include the proper conjugation of their reflexive verb within the context of a sentence. The cell should also illustrate the chosen sentence. Below each cell in the description box, students will reinforce the conjugation by retyping just the conjugated reflexive verb.
