4. The slides will be saved as .jpg and imported in to windows moviemaker.

5. Students will add narration to their slides telling about each room in their house. Students will give complete sentences in Spanish about what the room is, at least 4 items located in the room and 1-2 activities that occur in that room.

6. The final minute of the presentation should be devoted to making the house sound desirable. The student should give a price for the house, a location and other information normally listed in an ad. If students do not wish to do their own house, they may create a fictional house.
