02 Preterite – Irregulars – Song!
To help you with remembering quite of few of those irregular verbs, I’ll share a song I learned back in high school! This song is also on page 2 of the preterite conjugation sheet.
This song helps you remember the yo forms of some of the common irregular verbs in the preterite. If it sounds familiar that is because it is to the tune of ‘La cucaracha‘.
Vocabulario:
¡sí se puede! - ‘yes you can!’ (literally: Yes, it can [be done])
haber – there to be
hay – there is /are
hubo – there was /were

Could you please tell me what DVD’s would be good teaching ones for my husband and I. Of course, we like the rating of Y7. Thank you.

Jeremy,
I am loving your videos! I am referring some friends to them to help them learn Spanish. Also, we are impatiently waiting for your preterite vs. imperfect video!
P.S. How are you? Still coming to Kville regularly?

Thank you so much for your videos and lessons! They are wonderfully amazing.
Is there any way you would be able to put this video on teachertube? My school blocks you tube and I think that my students would really benefit from this song!
