Spanish Phrase of the Week
We're starting to put it all together!
En la clase hay lápices amarillos.
In the classroom there are yellow pencils.
Keep practicing those colors ... and see if anyone remembers the Spanish words for some of the other classroom items we've learned.
En la clase hay lápices amarillos.
En la clase hay lápices rojos.
En la clase hay libros verdes.
En la clase hay libros morados.
En la clase hay estudiantes de colóres diferentes.
Notice that when the noun is plural (lápices, libros, estudiantes), the adjective/color that describes it is plural as well (amarillos, rojos, verdes, morados).
Here's a fun, repetitive immersion song to find the rhythm of asking and answering what color different things are.
And an interactive video to practice classroom items!
