Listening--Despacito--Vinales--Student-Safe-Version--TEACHER-COPY

After many many requests by my students I caved and used Despacito as a teaching resource - but not before rewriting the lyrics to make them 1) GCSE appropriate 2) highly respectful to women (but much less respectful to the reggaeton genre). This is a resource for an engaging listening lesson. There is a link to a Quizlet on key vocab for the song, a worksheet with the lyrics and a variety of micro-listening exercises working on fine-listening skills (detecting minor errors + single letter/whole word gap fills). Last paragraph also contains errors in the actual song! Finally, there is also a TeachVid resource linked in the document too, to use as a follow up to the listening activity.

There is also a link, inside the resource to me performing the song (I did my best, be kind! - but also I don’t mind, so long as students find it engaging and progress in their Spanish)
