Key Notes

  • Identifying sound-spelling links can help you with listening and reading in Spanish and completing dictation tasks.
  • The sound-spelling correspondence [que] sounds like 'porque' and [qui] like 'equipo'.
  • If Spanish words ending in -n, -s or a vowel have final-syllable stress an accent on the final vowel shows this.
  • You can form answers to questions in Spanish by converting 2nd person language into 1st person language.

Vocabulary To Learn

  • dictation: language-learning or testing activity where students write down what they hear
  • final-syllable stress: pronouncing the final syllable more heavily than other syllables in a word
  • 1st person: form of pronouns and verbs used to refer to 'I' or 'we'
  • 2nd person: form of pronouns and verbs used to refer to 'you' or 'you all'

Common Mistakes To Avoid

  • When answering questions, I can use the verb in the question to start my answer.

3 Quick Questions (With Answers)

1. Explain what you can now say or understand in this lesson.

Identifying sound-spelling links can help you with listening and reading in Spanish and completing dictation tasks. The sound-spelling correspondence [que] sounds like 'porque' and [qui] like 'equipo'.

2. Define this key language word and use it in context. 'dictation'

language-learning or testing activity where students write down what they hear. Say or write it in a short sentence so you use the word actively.

3. Correct this common language-learning mistake.

Mistake: When answering questions, I can use the verb in the question to start my answer. Correction: You can start your answer using the question verb but it's important to not copy the question word-for-word. If questions use 2nd person verbs, you need to change them to 1st person, changing 'you' verbs into 'I' or 'we' forms.
