Why this why now
In this unit, pupils consolidate a variety of regular and irregular verbs in the present and preterite, and expand this with irregular preterite stems 'pude', 'vine', 'puse', 'quise', 'traje', 'estuve', 'dije'. Pupils build on their knowledge of forms of the preterite with the second person plural of -er and -ir verbs. They will learn the second person plural of -ar verbs in another unit. Pupils anchor a variety of infinitive structures while talking about routines, and add 'sin' with an infinitive to their repertoire. Pupils already know how to use 'conmigo', and expand this with 'contigo'.
