What you’ll learn

I can read and understand a longer text in Spanish using reading techniques and I can write about my school.

  • To read and understand a longer text in Spanish, reading techniques are useful.
  • To write about school, 'tener' and no + 'tener' is used.

Words to know

pero
means 'but'

means 'or'

Common mistakes

It is best to focus first on the unfamiliar words in a longer text.

This should be done in last place, when context has been read.
