Gap filling exercise which I designed for my Yr9 on the weather (I guess would be suitable for Yr8 top set or Yr10 too). Text has both present/near future weather forecast. I gave each student a different strip and they then go around the class asking each other for some words they haven't got, reading the text in Spanish. It's differentiated so you can give out strips according to your students' ability. The strips get harder and harder. The complete text is on the last strip for the teacher to help if needed. Then, I got students to translate text in English followed by adapting it to write a weather forecast about Spain or another country they like. Enjoy and don't forget to feedback :-)

A nice translation game/idea found and adapted for Spanish on topic Las vacaciones. Done with Yr10 who loved it. Enjoy and don't forget to feedback!

Claim the parcel translation game   Activity for revising different verb tenses and topics from new GCSE AQA books.   You have a table with different verbs tenses/sentences and project it on your interactive whiteboard/wall. In groups of 2 (max 3) they write the answer in the Spanish to one of the parcels/boxes on their mini white boards, come to you at the front of the class (you check) and if they have the answer correct they can claim the parcel/box. You write their names/team name on a post it notes and stick it over the parcel/box on the interactive whiteboard. Then, no one can do this parcel/box anymore. The winner is the group to have most parcels/boxes claimed at the end. Don't forget to feedback!
