GCSE Spanish social problems vocabulary is revised in this class dominoes activity. Suitable for top set students. Perfect for a starter activity.

Cut up the dominoes in advance of the class and shuffle them. Each student is given a domino with one English sentence followed by a non-matching Spanish sentence. Vocabulary includes social/ world problems and proposed solutions.

Differentiation: the dominoes with * at the beginning of the Spanish sentences are the hardest ones for the most able. You could also give the most able more than one domino.

Give students a couple of minutes to work out what their Spanish sentence means. They can confer and use their books. The teacher starts the time and reads out the first domino with the *** and English sentence only. The person with the Spanish translation for that sentence then reads out the Spanish followed by the next English sentence. Whoever has the Spanish translation for that sentence then reads out their domino until someone reads out the last domino with the same English sentence as the teacher’s domino.

You can then swap the dominoes and do the same activity again to see if the class can beat their time. You could record the times and see if one class can do it faster than another class.
