Why this why now

Pupils learned subject relative clauses in previous units. In this unit, they strengthen their use of wh- pronouns as relative pronouns 'que', 'donde', 'cuando', and learn new relative pronouns 'lo que', 'el que', 'el cual'. Pupils anchor their knowledge of irregular verbs in the preterite in conversations about historical Spanish-speaking figures.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Pupils know how to form relative clauses using relative pronouns 'que', 'cuando', 'donde'.
  • Pupils know regular and a variety of irregular verbs in the preterite.
  • Pupils know singular and plural persons of regular -ar, -er, -ir verbs and some irregular stems in the inflectional future.
  • Pupils know sound-symbol correspondences [j], [qui], [que].
