Las clases especiales – The “Specials”

The “Specials” are elective subjects taken in primary school, which are taught by specialized teachers to help students gain more specific knowledge about certain areas of interest.

Las clases especiales son clases electivas que se toman en primaria y las cuales son dictadas por profesores especializados para ayudar a los estudiantes a obtener conocimiento específico sobre ciertas áreas de interés.

Las Asignaturas – Primaria / Class Subjects – Primary

Now, let’s see an example of a schedule for a primary school student 🙂

For talking about the hours, from 8:00 AM to 11:59 AM you have to say: de la mañana
Example: 9:30 AM should be nueve y treinta (or nueve y media) de la mañana.

From 12:00 m to 12:59 m you should use: del mediodía.
Example: 12:30 m should be doce y treinta (or doce y media) del mediodía.

And, finally, from 1:00 PM to 6:59 PM you should say: de la tarde.
Example: 4:45 PM should be cuatro y cuarenta y cinco de la tarde.
