An extensive (109 slides) powerpoint, containing plenty of activities both from the textbook and created by me, including a lot of extension tasks to stretch high attainers.
NOTE: look at the bottom of the slides (not in presentation mode) as sometimes there are instructions on what to do in each activity.
An Ofsted outstanding lesson to prepare students to be able to talk about future jobs and plans using a range of tenses, and introducing the simple conditional.
Pack includes: a lesson plan, a starter with MWBs, speaking, listening, reading, writing with peer assessment, and grammar activities with dice and worksheet.

This bundle includes units 1 to 5 from "Mis vacaciones" unit in Mira 2.

A translation maze inspired on the language from pages 86 and 87 on the Viva 1 textbook, topic ‘como es tu casa o piso?’ (module 4.4).
All instructions are on the resource, and should be displayed and explained to students before starting to play.
Aim: to find your way out of the maze by shading a path of correct answers. You get out when your path connects the entrance with the exit boxes.
If you don’t know this activity it has, in essence, the same principle as a bingo. It takes quite some time to run, as there are 18 different questions/rounds and children get very excited by shading the boxes and counting how many left they need to shade before they get out of the maze!
The teacher should then check the answers (all included) of any child claiming to have got out of the maze: note they should be perfect or close to perfect translations to be able to call a winner. If you were to get through the 18 rounds and no one has managed to get out of the maze (unlikely), go back to question 1 and get them to translate the opposite sentence until someone can win.
This activity tends to work wonders with any age group and is a nice alternative to bingo. It’s also easily editable - you might find the sentences I’ve used are too challenging for your class.
