Challenge number 3

This time you will have to research about different types of fish. You will have to answer to four questions:


Question 1

Watch the PowerPoint presentation and write the names in Spanish of the fish that appear. Here you have the list, so you can copy, paste it and don´t have to waste time writing all the names again:  

TROUT
CARP
SALMON
EEL
STURGEON
SARDINE
ANCHOVY
MACKEREL
HORSE MACKEREL
HERRING
RED MULLET
TUNA
COD
GILTHEAD BREAM
SEA BASS
HAKE
WHITING
SWORDFISH
GROUPER
TURBOT
SOLE
HALIBUT
CONGER EEL
MONKFISH

Question 2

How do we call in English a large group of fish that swim together? The following picture can give you a clue:



Question 3

How do we say in English “pescado blanco” and “pescado azul”? What is the difference between them?

Question 4

What kind of fish do you mostly eat at home? Name at least 3 different types of fish you eat and the way you eat it (boiled, fried, in sauce, roasted…).

I hope this time you don´t complain about the level of difficulty of the challenge. See you on Monday!

Very good, Dani. Try to answer the questions left. I believe you can look up for the names of the fish you don´t know in the dictionary. Ask your mother about other fish dishes you eat ans about the difference between "pescado blanco" and "pescado azul". She might can help you.
