      Why this why now

      This unit secures knowledge of third person singular and plural -ar and -er verbs. Having previously learnt about several cities and festivals, the unit extends pupils’ cultural knowledge of places where Spanish is spoken, focusing on the Tomatina festival in Spain, and Fiestas Patrias and Inti Raymi celebrations in Peru, as pupils now have the depth of linguistic knowledge to support this. New knowledge of important adjectival determiners ‘mucho’ and ‘todo’ is introduced and developed through the unit and will be revisited in further units.

      Prior knowledge requirements

      • Pupils know singular and plural forms of -ar and -er verbs in the present tense.
      • Pupils know a range of -ar and -er verbs.
      • Pupils know the effect that grammatical gender has on a variety of determiners, such as articles.
