Class survey. Sports would have been introduced first. Use the survey to practise the question 'Tu aimes ... ?' plus different sports. There is a variety of answers that can be given to the questions with different symbols for each. Pupils mark the answers on the grid using these symbols. Model the conversation and how to do the survey before the whole class does it. Extension work in the grey sections encourages further development of conversational language. Check learning with short performances of the conversations and/or follow up with writing up of some conversations.

9 pages of vocabulary tests to go with the lists I've made. The first few have some of the test in English and some in Spanish so pupils write the opposite language. Later on, pupils must just write in the Spanish. The final page is a blank grid in case you don't like any of those options!! Buena suerte.
