Spanish listening / writing / translation tasks on physical description and personality

Two ways of using this resource:

1. LISTENING: project the doc on the board / print copies for pupils, choose one of the people, say ‘Antonio, number 1:’ and give a short sentence or phrase in Spanish that matches one of the lines in Antonio’s profile. Pupils must find the detail and write ‘1’ next to it. Continue with all the details in his profile in a random order to practise recognising them. To make the activity harder, say a sentence in Spanish from any of the descriptions and pupils have to write the name of the person.
2. WRITING: This activity should be completed once pupils have had extensive practice on vocab for describing physique and personality and could be used as assessment. Pupils can select one of the four people and complete sentences covering as many aspects mentioned as possible in Spanish. You could project the doc and annotate with bits of vocab in Spanish as support if necessary.
