Common misconception
When conjugating verbs in Spanish, you always need to start by taking off the infinitive ending.
Some verb tenses, such as the inflectional future, are formed by adding the relevant ending to the infinitive. As such, the infinitive ending is not taken off.
Teacher tip
You could increase the level of challenge in Task B2 by changing parameters, e.g. instructing students to include at least two inflectional future verbs per answer.
