Super Spanish Resources' main focus is the creation of top-quality resources for use in the classroom. Ranging from KS3 to GCSE, materials are made by a fully-qualified Spanish teacher with 17 years' classroom experience in secondary schools.
I also produce resources which can be used by non-Spanish MFL teachers, such as schemes of work, certificates and early finisher tasks.

Group Talk encourages students to use the language in more casual, conversational settings. Put up a PowerPoint with pictures of various branded snacks, video games, television shows, movies, etc and get the students to use their knowledge of the language along with these crib sheets to engage in debates; expressing their opinions, agreeing and disagreeing with one another.
There are three KS 3 sheets. Level 1 for Year 7, Level 2 for Year 8, Level 3 for Year 9, or can be used most specifically for differentiation within year groups. There is also a higher level, more mature sheet aimed at GCSE students.
Get your students speaking more spontaneously and try not to correct small mistakes!
Although I have listed these resources under 'displays and posters', I have found it helpful to have a set of each laminated ready to give out to the class when needed. An excellent starter or plenary activity and great training for the new GCSE speaking elements.
