Bring some fun to Year 11 lessons at Easter time! Semana Santa tasks include word puzzles, reading and writing plus Easter cards to create. Vocabulary includes Spanish Easter words, opinions plus much more so that the resource can work alongside your everyday teaching.
Being the last packet of five, the tasks are less supported and more independent input is expected of learners! (e.g. open-ended writing tasks)
This resource works well because
☛ it’s a flexible 11 page learning booklet for your Year 10s to learn vocabulary for Easter in Spanish.
☛ it’s a really engaging work packet which will liven up any Spanish lesson.
☛ the booklet could be used for
in-person printables
distance learning
starter tasks
homework
cover lessons
☛ it’s low or even no prep’ for you
☛ it can run alongside what learners are already doing to aid reading and deciphering skills e.g. photo description
☛ a bilingual vocabulary list included and answer pages where appropriate.
☛ a black and white version is also included
Vocabulary really is comprehensive in case learners are unable to look up words easily, so you may wish to remove this section if you prefer a more difficult work booklet!
Booklets are flattened to protect my work and that of others within the resource and are un-editable.

Noël: A pack of French Christmas resources for years 7 to 11. 5 or more sheets per year group which eliminates the need to scrabble around every year as they are all different. Starts basic for Y7 with vocabulary based sheets/word search etc and by Y11 they have some multiple choice reading comprehension to do.
If you can’t fit these in to your SoW, why not use them for French club, HW or just for keen beans!
I’ve included a PDF of everything plus another copy which has hints/tips/answers also brought over from the original. Note: they print landscape.
Lesson 2. Use to introduce or consolidate work on unit 1.2 of Viva 1 Module 1 Mi Vida. Plenty of activities to fill a lesson plus in-built differentiation. Ooops! The picture I used here is of a girl...I'll rectify this in the resource and the image ASAP! Apologies...
Year 7 resource covering basic information and questions with an Easter learning twist. There are 16 cards of pets to use in a variety of ways - listening/speaking/writing/whole class/small group/pairs. An ideas sheet is at the end. A flexible resource to bring in Easter words without jeopardising the SoW! Useful to revise basic information and questions but bringing in new vocabulary for Easter at the same time.

This 47 page distance learning pack is based on vocabulary from Studio 1 Unit 1, personal information: animaux/araignées/capoeira/chats/chiens/cinéma/consoles de jeux/danse/foot/gâteaux/opinions/hair/eyes/personality…) but would work well as a stand-alone resource as well.

French Classroom Signs
Thirty two target language signs to print and laminate to display to encourage French speaking in the classroom. Sixteen student phrases/questions and sixteen teacher instructions. Includes two sheets with each of the sixteen grouped on them in case you don’t have room on your wall: you could print student copies instead.
An Easter card game plus further activities. Using personal/basic information plus Easter words thrown in, you may get away with using this in your lessons to bring in Easter vocabulary! A card game gets you started and further activities for reading/writing/speaking are explained on the last sheet.
The jobs/les emplois topic in French is consolidated with jobs vocab’ presented through picture and word matching, puzzles, * reading comprehensions*, scaffolded writing, independent writing tasks with cues. It goes well with Studio 3, Module 3, although supplementary vocabulary is included, and includes a PowerPoint and PDF version.
If you have introduced learners to the French jobs topic, this is the ideal resource for you. You can use it to consolidate prior learning. If you haven’t taught the topic, use this resource for them to work out or deduce the vocabulary themselves.
The resource works around ‘Les Emplois’ and introduces vocabulary beginning with simple picture and word matching, moving steadily through reading tasks, guided writing tasks and ending with independent writing.
Although prior knowledge is assumed, a three page vocabulary list is included to help. Some research on vocabulary and structures might be needed, depending on the ability of your learners. The work booklet can be used by you with learners in the classroom or by the learners if they are distance learning.
The answer pages are given after the main work packet and therefore may be printed separately or given when needed, rather than in one go to learners. Sample answers are given for writing tasks since, as I’m sure you will understand, responses can vary considerably.
A black and white version is included.
Other uses for the packet included using the sheets separately for starter tasks or cover lessons, even homework.
Further study could include a research project about part-time jobs of French youths.
Tasks include:
reading comprehensions
scaffolded writing
gap-fills
independent writing task with cues
puzzles
