The first review day is here! 🎉
You’ve spent the first part of the challenge learning basic Spanish phrases, numbers, months, days of the week, jobs, and simple ways to practice.
Today, we’re not adding a big new lesson.
Instead, it’s time to look back, test your memory, and see what you’ve actually learned.
Think of this as your Week 1 Spanish check-in.

🔄 Quick Week 1 Recap
Before the quiz, here’s a super-fast review of what you’ve covered.
👋 Introductions
You learned how to introduce yourself:
Me llamo… → My name is…
Yo tengo … años. → I am … years old.
Soy de… → I am from…
Me gusta… → I like…
You also learned some everyday expressions:
Hola → Hello
¿Cómo estás? → How are you?
Gracias → Thank you
Por favor → Please
Adiós → Goodbye
Don’t overthink these.
The goal is to be able to recognize them and start using them naturally.
🔢 Numbers 1–50
You worked through Spanish numbers from 1 to 50.
A few useful ones to remember:
uno → 1
cinco → 5
diez → 10
quince → 15
veinte → 20
treinta → 30
cuarenta → 40
cincuenta → 50
And you learned an important study habit:
Listen → Repeat → Recall → Repeat again
📅 Months
You learned all 12 months:
enero, febrero, marzo, abril, mayo, junio, julio, agosto, septiembre, octubre, noviembre, diciembre.
Remember:
Mi cumpleaños es en mayo.
“My birthday is in May.”
And one small but important writing rule:
Spanish months are normally written in lowercase.
So:
✅ enero
❌ Enero
🗓️ Days of the Week
You also learned:
lunes → Monday
martes → Tuesday
miércoles → Wednesday
jueves → Thursday
viernes → Friday
sábado → Saturday
domingo → Sunday
Two days have accent marks:
miércoles
sábado
And remember:
el lunes → on Monday / a particular Monday
los lunes → on Mondays / every Monday
💼 Jobs & Professions
You also practiced vocabulary for different professions.
Some of the words you encountered were:
enfermero / enfermera → nurse
maestro / maestra → teacher

bombero / bombera → firefighter
mecánico / mecánica → mechanic
programador / programadora → programmer
contador / contadora → accountant
dentista → dentist
electricista → electrician
periodista → journalist
veterinario / veterinaria → veterinarian
You also noticed something important:
Not every profession follows exactly the same masculine/feminine pattern.
For example:
mecánico → mecánica
but:
dentista → dentista

🗓️ Talk about days of the week
💼 Recognize common jobs and professions
🗣️ Build simple Spanish sentences
🧠 Practice recall instead of relying only on recognition
