Description

In this unit, pupils use ‘hacer’ to understand short texts and ask and answer questions about birthdays and other celebrations. They learn to use ‘hacer’ meaning be with weather expressions and extend their sentences using the subordinating conjunction ‘cuando’, meaning when.

Pupils will already know the singular forms of ‘hacer’ to do, make. This unit secures this knowledge in a new context, additionally connecting present tense use of ‘hacer’ with questions and negation, before introducing the idiomatic use of ‘hacer’ with weather expressions. Building on pupils’ use of simple and compound sentences, pupils learn to create longer sentences with subordinate clauses, using ‘cuando’. This unit’s cultural context explores the importance of the three Wise Men in Spain and students apply their knowledge in writing a letter to them.

  1. It's my birthday! Singular forms of 'hacer'
  2. A birthday plan: the negative 'no' with 'hacer'
