Students may present their information as a conversation or as a straight report (or another creative way).  Students listening to the presenations will have to write at least three questions per presenation.  These questions will be in Spanish and may relate to the cost of parts of the students' trip.  Questions may be as simple as "¿Cuánto cuesta la escuela?" or  "¿Cómo se llama el hotel en Guanajuato?"  If a student asks a question after a presentation, that student will earn points toward "Hablar de clase."   More sophisticated questions will result in additional credit.  For the presenters, responses to questions count for your overall grade (see responding to the unexpected).
