Change of Dress is the fifth installment of the video course for elementary students (Básico 1 and Básico 2) that we have been publishing this week. The focus of the episode today is on shopping.
Before watching this episode, make sure you understand this vocabulary which has to do with shopping for clothes:
expensive; cheap; gorgeous; tight; it’s got a stain; the label of a dress; a charity shop; it’s second hand; it’s torn; try the dress on
To review the episode, put these events in the correct order to tell the story. Then watch the whole episode again to check.
