(HC)2 Spanish: 5th and 6th Grade: April 18, 2018

We finished our "amigo del día" unit! I enjoyed learning a little more about everyone and I was impressed by all the Spanish we spoke in class!

Ask your student:

Who were the amigo del día today? What did you learn about him? What does like? (If you need to refresh your memory, we had just had one amigo today! Look at the vocabulary list below. To protect privacy, I just listed each amigo's initials before the words we learned while talking about them.)

Vocabulary:
Words in bold are new this week, others are review.
To keep this list from getting too long, only this week's amigos are listed. You can view previous blog posts to review vocabulary from other "amigos."

jugar - to play
videojuegos - video games
nadar - to swim

Grammar Concept
Me gusta vs Me gustan

In Spanish you use "Me gusta" (I like) when what you like is either an action or a singular noun.

Examples:
Me gusta cantar. = I like to sing. (sing = action)
Me gusta la casa. = I like the house. (the house = singular)
Me gusta limpiar la casa. = I like to clean the house. (I like "to clean" = action)
Me gustar leer los libros. = I like to read the books. (I like "to read" = action...even though books is plural, the action comes first.)

In Spanish you use "Me gustan" (I like) when what you like is plural.

Examples:
Me gustan las piñatas. = I like the piñatas. (piñatas = plural)
Me gustan los zapatos. = I like the shoes. (shoes = plural)
Me gustan los zorros. = I like the foxes. (foxes = plural)

Me encanta/Me encantan is used to talk about something you REALLY like or love.

Examples:
Me encantan los pastelitos. = I love cupcakes. (pastelitos = plural)
Me encanta nadar. = I love to swim (swim = action)
