KS3 & KS4 Spanish curriculum

In this unit, pupils add four new question words to their repertoire, and revisit 'qué', 'dónde', 'cómo', 'quién'. Pupils use their knowledge of number agreement to ask questions with cuánto(s), cuál(es), quién(es), and embed their knowledge of a range of verbs in the present tense. New and revisited vocabulary about activities provide topics for asking questions. Pupils revisit the sound-symbol correspondence cu with a vowel when using question words. Pupils strengthen their knowledge of key sounds a, o, ge, gi, j.
