# Watching a Swedish Commercial ## expand\_more #### In Swedish Aa, Ursula Lindqvist and Suzanne Martin have their students watch a commercial for a major Swedish food chain on YouTube in order to practice helping verbs and adjectives while working on listening comprehension and being exposed to Swedish television. For homework, students watched a short commercial for Coop, a Swedish supermarket chain, that shows a man looking at a shopping list and then picking out the groceries he wants and not the ones he was supposed to get. They then had to answer a list of questions asking what he was supposed to buy and what he actually bought. This provided a great opportunity for students to practice using helping verbs and adjectives. **The handout is attached and the [YouTube video is here.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHyZnXbXqkM&feature=related)** --- Attachments- [ description handout.docx ](/sites/g/files/omnuum4096/files/ablconnect/files/coop-laxa.docx) --- See also:- [ Humanities ](/area/humanities) - [ Authentic Learning (Simulations, Lab, Field) ](/learning-goals/authentic-learning-simulations-lab-field) - [ Expanding Depth and Breadth ](/learning-goals/expanding-depth-and-breadth) - [ Providing Structure and Context ](/learning-goals/providing-structure-and-context) - [ Learn Foundational Knowledge ](/learning-goals/learn-foundational-knowledge) - [ 10 to 30 minutes ](/length-activity/10-30-minutes) - [ Individual ](/filter_by/individual) - [ Single Class ](/filter_by/single-class) - [ Broad/Fundamental ](/filter_by/broadfundamental) - [ Problem/Answer ](/filter_by/traditional) - [ Germanic Languages and Literatures ](/department/germanic-languages-and-literatures) - [ Martin, Suzanne ](/filter_by/martin-suzanne) - [ Lindqvist, Ursula ](/filter_by/lindqvist-ursula) - [ Statement Correction ](/activity-type/statement-correction) - [ SWEDISH 10A/SWEDISH AA: Beginning Swedish Language and Literature ](/filter_by/swedishaa) - [ Introduction to Swedish Language and Literature ](/filter_by/introduction-swedish-language-and-literature) - [ Whole class ](/filter_by/whole-class-0) - [ Worksheet ](/filter_by/worksheet)
