Why this why now
This unit builds on pupils’ previous knowledge of -ar verbs by growing their verb lexicon and introducing singular persons of -er verbs and the highly frequent irregular verb ‘hacer’ to do, make. Revisiting key verb patterns with new verbs is essential to securing the knowledge. Similarly, providing multiple opportunities to practise asking and answering questions with new vocabulary develops pupils’ communicative competence. In later units pupils will extend their knowledge from singular to plural forms of these verbs in the present tense.
