Description

This unit introduces infinitive and singular forms of prototypical and top 25 regular -ar verbs, in the context of talking about what people do. Key sounds learnt are cue, cua, cui and ce and ci.

In this unit, pupils broaden their knowledge of verbs with the addition of singular and infinitive -ar verbs. Pupils reinforce their knowledge of indefinite articles and nouns, and combine this knowledge with -ar verbs to form simple sentences, in which they add new vocabulary to their repertoire. Pupils build on their knowledge of the sound-symbol correspondence cu with new sounds cue, cua, cui, and learn a new way to pronounce c with ce and ci.
