Key learning points
- Inti Raymi (Festival of the Sun) is an ancient festival celebrating the winter solstice and Inti, the Sun God.
- 'Todo' means everything, all (of). When 'todo' is used before a noun, the spelling changes to match gender and number.
- 'Todo el mundo' means 'everyone'.
- 'Mucho' means 'many', 'lots of'. When 'mucho' is used before a noun, the spelling changes to match gender and number.
- 'Arriba' means 'above', 'abajo' is 'below', 'a la izquierda' means 'on the left', 'a la derecha' is 'on the right'.
Keywords
Todo el mundo - a phrase meaning 'everyone', which uses the 3rd person singular form of the verb
Todo - a word meaning 'everything', 'all (of)'. When used before a noun, the spelling changes to match number and gender
Mucho - a word meaning 'much', 'a lot of'. When used before a noun the spelling changes to match number and gender
Common misconception
You need to use the plural form of 'todo' or 'mucho' with 'gente'.
'Gente' is a singular noun, so you use the 3rd person singular form of 'todo' and 'mucho' with 'gente'. Remember, these words also agree with the gender of the noun: 'toda', 'mucha'.
Teacher tip
Pupils could complete additional activities to develop language and cultural awareness. Pupils could reenact a scene from the celebration and include greetings or ceremonial phrases, compare this festival with others, create a Sun God mask or explore the Quecha language.
