More conjugation practiceIf you have a sentence and you need to change your verb to the correct form, you must FIRST find your subject (or subjects). Then figure out what it’s supposed to say. Then choose the correct ending. For example: Tu y yo (cantar) en la clase. The subjects are tu and yo (which would be you and I, which would be we) then change it to the we ending. Tu y yo (cantamos) en la clase.

If you think the ending is wrong, write what you think it should be in the margin.Then switch your partner’s sentences with a new person.They need to do the same thing as you did.
