Rising 6 th Grade Summer Review Packet

Transcription

1 1 Rising 6 th Grade Summer Review Packet This packet is designed to review Spanish grammar concepts that were learned in 5 th grade. This packet is to be completed throughout the summer vacation. It has been broken into 10 weeks and it is designed this way to help the student review and reinforce the concepts that they have already learned. I recommend one exercise per week to avoid doing multiple exercises at one time. It will be much more beneficial to the student this way. The students will receive a grade for this packet when they return and there will also be a test. Enjoy your summer and remember to speak lots of Spanish. Adios! Nombre

8 Grammar Notes This section of your packet will help you if you have forgotten a section. Please feel free to read over any of these sections you feel you may not understand completely. This Grammar review is here to help you. Part 1: Nouns A noun represents a person or an animal, a thing, a place, or an idea. All Spanish nouns have gender - they are either masculine or feminine. Most nouns that end in -o are masculine, and most nouns that end in -a are feminine. el libro la carpeta masculine gender feminine gender Nouns ending in letters other than -o or -a do not automatically tell you their gender. The gender of these nouns is learned through practice. el lápiz la clase masculine gender feminine gender A few nouns can be both masculine and feminine. el estudiante la estudiante masculine gender feminine gender Part 2: Definite Articles The singular definite article in English is "the." Spanish has two singular definite articles: el for masculine nouns and la for feminine nouns. el bolígrafo la mochila the pen the backpack Part 3: Indefinite Articles The singular indefinite article in English is "a" or "an." Spanish has two singular indefinite articles: un for masculine nouns and una for feminine nouns. un bolígrafo a pen una mochila a backpack 8

9 9 Part 4: Subject pronouns We use pronouns to avoid repeating a person's name. Subject pronouns tell who is doing an action. Mary works in a gift shop. She often works on Saturdays. I yo we (m.) we (f.) nosotros nosotras you (informal) tú you (inf.) vosotros vosotras you (formal) usted you (form. & inf.) ustedes he él they (m.) ellos she ella they (f.) ellas Part 5: Regular -ar Verbs The dictionary form of a verb is called the infinitive. estudiar = to study We must change the infinitive to a form that tells who is doing the action. To do this, we first drop the -ar. estudi + ar = infinitive Then, we add endings.

10 10 Yo estudio nosotros(as) estudiamos Tú estudias vosotros(as) xxxx él, ella, usted estudia ellos, ellas, ustedes estudian Now we can say Ella estudia. She studies. instead of saying Ella estudiar. She to study. Part 6: El verbo ir The verb IR is an irregular verb and does not follow a pattern like the regular -ar verbs you have learned. Below are the present-tense forms. Ir = to go Yo Voy nosotros(as) Vamos Tú Vas vosotros(as) Xxxx él, ella, usted Va ellos, ellas, ustedes Van We often use the verb ir to talk about going to a place. Here is a formula that will help you remember how to use it. ir + a + place You use a form of the verb ir, then a, then a place. Voy a la piscina. Elena va al parque. We also use the verb ir with a and an infinitive to talk about what someone is going to do in the near future. ir + a + infinitive

11 11 Remember that an infinitive is the dictionary form of the verb-the verb before you do anything to it. Here are some infinitives that you know. nadar = to swim jugar = to play Here are some examples of ir + a + infinitive. Voy a jugar tenis mañana. I'm going to play tennis tomorrow. Voy a ir a la playa el sábado. I'm going to go to the beach on Saturday. Part 7: El verbo estar The verb estar is also an irregular verb. Estar = to be Yo estoy Nosotros(as) estamos Tú estás Vosotros(as) Xxxx él, ella, usted está ellos, ellas, ustedes están We use the verb estar to tell how someone feels or where someone is. Estoy cansado. I am tired. Estoy en la clase de español. I am in Spanish class. Part 8: The preposition con We use the preposition con when we want to say that we are going to do something with someone. Voy al cine con Alicia. I am going to the movies with Alicia. with me conmigo with us con

12 12 with you contigo with you nosotros/as con vosotros with you con Ud. with you con Uds. with him con él with them con ellos with her con ella with then con ellas Part 9: Regular -er Verbs COMER=to eat Yo como nosotros(as) comemos Tú comes vosotros(as) coméis él, ella, usted come ellos, ellas, ustedes comen Part 10: Adjectives Adjectives are words that describe nouns. Ricardo es simpático. Ricardo is nice. In Spanish, most adjectives that end in -o are masculine and most adjectives that end in -a are feminine. El chico es simpático. La chica es simpática. Adjectives that end in -e can describe either males or females. El chico es amable. La chica es amable. Many adjectives that end in a consonant describe males and females. El chico es popular. La chica es popular. Some adjectives add an -a to become feminine. You must memorize these adjectives.

13 13 El chico es trabajador. La chica es trabajadora. An adjective that describes a masculine noun must also be masculine; one that describes a feminine noun must be feminine. El libro es rojo. La mochila es roja. Part 11: Making Adjectives Adjectives, just like nouns, have both a singular and a plural form. el plátano amarillo los plátanos amarillos If an adjective ends in a vowel, add -s. bueno rojo Buenos Rojos inteligente inteligentes If an adjective ends in a consonant, add -es. popular Populares difícil Difíciles When a adjective describes both masculine and feminine nouns, use the masculine plural ending. Los plátanos y las manzanas son sabrosos. Part 12: Making Nouns If a noun ends in a vowel, simply add -s. libro + s = libros papel + es = papeles If a noun ends in a consonant, simply add -es. lápiz = lapices If a noun ends in a -z, change the z to c before adding the -es.

14 14 The definite articles (el, la) also change in the plural form. They become "los" and "las." el libro = los libro la regla = las reglas The indefinite articles (un, una) change in the plural form, too. They become "unos" and "unas," They mean "some" or "a few." un libro = unos libros una regla - unas reglas When we talk about liking something and the noun is plural, we use gustan and encantan. Me gusta la manzana. Me gustan las frutas. Me encanta la hamburguesa. Me encantan las papas fritas. Part 13: Position of Adjectives in Spanish Adjectives usually come after the noun they describe. Me gusta la manzana roja. Prefiero el plátano amarillo. Word banks Noun Word bank(these nouns are all in singular for remember to make them plural is needed). Car = carro sister = hermana house = casa hair = pelo eye = ojo Sport = deporte flower = flor neighborhood = barrio Adectives Word bank (These adjectives are all in singular for remember to make them plural is needed). red = rojo funny = simpático little = pequeño brown = café green = verde pink = Rosado purple = morado big = grande good = bueno tall = alto funny = cómico inteligente = intelligent old = viejo energetic = enérgico Other words or phrases you might need I like = Me gusta my = mi the= el or la the plural = los or las in = en I have = yo tengo and = y I love = Yo amo
