You have no pencil. Your neighbour has one. Can you ask for it in Spanish, right now, before we open today's words?
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
- Name eight classroom objects in Spanish
- Ask to borrow something and refuse politely
- Follow a short school conversation and answer about it
Here are today's eight classroom objects. Tap each one, listen, then say it back together with el or la. The ask you need is short: ¿Me prestas…? (meh PREHS-tahs), and a polite no is Lo siento, no puedo (loh SYEN-toh, noh PWEH-doh).
Listen for each classroom word and mark it on your card. When every word on your card is marked, call Bingo! Say the word quietly to yourself as you mark it so the sound sticks.
Open your copy and write the question that asks to borrow something, and one polite answer that says no. Check every accent before you put your pen down.
