Why this why now
This unit expands pupils' knowledge of present tense -ar verbs, 'ser' and 'estar' by adding the second person plural forms. This knowledge enables pupils to form the present continuous, which they learned in a previous unit, using 'estáis'. Furthermore, pupils learn to use second person plural possessive adjective 'vuestro/a' which they contrast with their existing knowledge of possessive adjective 'tu'. In phonics, pupils consolidate forming diphthongs with strong and weak vowels, and hiato with two strong vowels.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils know how to conjugate -ar verbs in the second person singular in the present tense.
- Pupils know how to form the present continuous using -ar verbs.
- Pupils know the difference between 'ser' and 'estar'.
- Pupils know possessive adjective 'tu'.
- Pupils know strong and weak vowels.
- Pupils know to use rising intonation to change a statement to a question, and that these questions are translated with a form of 'do' in English.
