Description

In this unit, pupils learn the numbers 16-31 and the months. Using numbers, months and days pupils ask and answer questions about birthdays and dates of other events. They practise the new vocabulary through listening, reading, speaking and writing to secure the knowledge.

Pupils will already know the numbers 1-12 and the interrogatives ‘qué’, ‘cómo’, ‘dónde’, ‘cuántos’ and ‘quién.’ This unit extends pupils’ knowledge of numbers to 31 and range of questions to include ‘cuándo’ and ‘cuál’ to enable pupils to ask and answer questions about dates, birthday and other special events and cultural festivals. Pupils deepen their knowledge of vowel sounds, learning that a, o, e are strong and i, u are weak vowels in Spanish, and the resulting sounds when two vowels combine. In other units, pupils revisit numbers 1-31 as they are essential knowledge for many contexts.

  1. The date: 'it is' + numbers and months
  2. Birthdays: questions with 'cuándo'
  3. Dates: questions with 'cuál', 'qué' and 'cuándo'
  4. Special events and festivals: 'el' with dates
