      Key learning points

      1. It is important to distinguish between the [j] + vowel and [g] + a, o or u sounds.
      2. To say 'your' for two or more people, use 'vuestro'.
      3. 'Vuestro' is used for a singular or uncountable masculine noun and 'vuestros' is used for a plural masculine noun.
      4. 'Vuestra' is used for a singular or uncountable feminine noun and 'vuestras' is used for a plural feminine noun.

      Keywords

      • Possessive adjective - an adjective referring to possession; in English, this includes 'my' and 'your'

      • Preterite - a tense used for completed events in the past

      • Vuestro - Spanish word meaning 'your' for two or more people; feminine singular and plural forms are 'vuestra', 'vuestros', 'vuestras'

      Common misconception

      There is only one word for 'your' in Spanish.

      'Tu' means 'your' when addressing one person. 'Vuestro' means 'your' when addressing more than one person.

      The Option 2 version of Task C1 in Cycle 3 provides the noun genders in brackets for pupils who need a little more support. The final writing activity brings together a range of language from the unit. It may be useful to recap the reflexive pronoun 'se' before beginning this.
