Description

This unit introduces singular preterite forms for irregular verbs 'hacer' and 'ir', and revisits their present tense singular forms. Pupils combine adverbs of location with 'del' and 'de la' and use forms of 'ir' with 'al' and 'a la'. Pupils revisit final syllable stress.

This unit furthers pupils' knowledge of verbs in the preterite by adding 'hice', 'hiciste', 'hizo', 'fui', 'fuiste', 'fue'. Pupils contrast these verbs with their irregular present tense counterparts. Pupils revisit adverbs of location with 'del' and 'de la' and anchor this knowledge to form sentences using adverbs of location and 'hacer'. They revisit 'al' and 'a la' and expand their use by combining them with 'ir' in the preterite. Rules around final syllable stress are revisited.

  1. Weekend activities: 'hice' and 'hiciste'
  2. Weekend activities: 'hizo'
  3. Excursions and trips: 'fui' and 'fuiste'
