GCSE Edexcel Spanish Examination corner
I have created a corner in my classroom where it is all about the GCSE Spanish examination. I have displayed all the important information about the papers, themes, expectations and useful websites for revision. I also have got some labelled traysin this corner in which listening, reading, translation, speaking, writing revision activities, tips etc are available for students to take away and try at home.
I have attached here:
examination corner (all the info about the papers and themes)
examination banner (big sign for the display)
useful websites
GCSE Spanish learning mats that include common verbs, adjectives, prepositions, question words, numbers, adverbs, time expressions, connectives, etc. They are good to use in the classroom as support while doing activities and also for quick revision.
A range of Ice breakers activities in Spanish (English version also included) for the first week of the course. Good way to practise vocabulary, grammar as well as getting to know everyone in the class.
Especially designed for year 12 students.
Cultural lesson about the Three Wise Men (Los Reyes Magos). Include information about this tradition, how is celebrated in Spain, a video to watch, a listening exercise (villancico) and a writing (carta a los Reyes Magos) task.
A variety of GCSE examination style activities in Spanish using the Christmas topic.
Include:
Starter activity - key vocabulary/verbs
reading comprehension task with two activities
translation into English
translation into Spanish
picture-based task (description of photo and opinion)
picture-based task (4 bullet points, 50-60 words)
extended writing task (80-90 words with 4 bullet points)
This resource can be used as a lesson on how to prepare for the role play task (foundation and higher tiers) or as a booklet for students to practise as part of the lesson, homework, revision material, etc.
The booklet is aimed to focus on how to answer/understand the bullet points and think about what the examiner could ask for each of them. It also contains information about the role play task for Edexcel.
I have not created/designed the role plays. I have put together some of the foundation and higher role plays from the Edexcel VIVA textbook and some from past papers/sample assessments, etc. They are organised by theme.
A variety of writing tasks to revise vocabulary and key grammatical structures as well as practise writing skills for the GCSE writing examination section. They cover all themes, topics and subtopics.
Two rounds of writing practice for each topic including:
grammar test
adjectives test
photo task
writing task
I have used questions from past papers, textbooks and made my own to create this resource. I have used photos from internet and/or past papers.
