Resum:	In this chapter we present the partial results of a study whose purpose is to observe the role of metalinguistic refection in students' learning of grammar concepts (Durán, 2013), and more specifcally to inquire into the notion of verb mood as constructed by students in compulsory secondary education in Spain (aged 12-16) throughout their education. We have started with the conviction that knowing how a linguistic system works enables us to better understand what other people are saying, to capture nuances better and, in short, to communicate more effectively. That is, we believe that speakers need explicit grammar knowledge in order to improve their oral and written language use - especially in the formal registers - and that this knowledge, which is part of the information that schools should provide (Camps, 1986), is also interesting in itself. This is an approach that focuses on both meaning and form and stresses the importance of grammatical knowledge linked to both use and refection on use (Doughty and Williams, 1998; Bialystok, 1991; Schmidt, 1990; Swain, 1996; Ellis, 1990).
