Description

In this unit, pupils use newly introduced 2-verb structures with opinion verbs ‘amar’ and ‘odiar’ to say what they like and hate doing, and modal verbs ‘deber’ and ‘querer’ to say what they must do and want to do. Contexts include household chores, rules at school, Lanzarote in summer and a poem.

Pupils will already know first person plural -ar and -er verbs and opinion verbs ‘amar’ and ‘odiar’. This unit secures this knowledge first, before introducing 2-verb structures with opinion verbs, then modal verbs ‘deber’ and ‘querer’. This is the final new structure pupils learn in the course, so knowledge is developed over several lessons in the unit. In the latter part of this unit pupils extend their knowledge by responding creatively in speaking and writing to an authentic poem with a 2-verb structure as its linguistic anchor, ‘Quiero ver una vaca’ by Enrique Fierro.
