Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
The imperfect tense in Spanish is used to describe past actions that were ongoing, habitual, or express what someone used to do.
- •
In the imperfect tense, the 'yo' and 'él/ella/usted' forms of 'ar' verbs have the same ending, so it may be necessary to include the subject pronoun for clarity.
- •
To conjugate regular 'ar' verbs in the imperfect tense, use the following endings: yo -aba, tú -abas, él/ella/usted -aba, nosotros -ábamos, ellos/ellas/ustedes -aban.
