This is a adaptation of a brilliant idea shared by @MissLlewis and @HuntingEnglishblog. A self-reflexion activity to foster students’ independence and improve their revision techniques.

I may be old fashion, but I believe that dictionary skills are so important when learning a foreign language. These activities are the second part of the dictionary ideas. These are not only fun and engaging but also help students become proficient in using bilingual dictionaries while reinforcing their Spanish vocabulary. Give them a try in your classroom and watch your students’ enthusiasm for learning soar! Feel free to share these ideas with your fellow educators and let’s make language learning an adventure together!

I’ve found this progress tracker very useful for students, parents and teachers to track students’ progress in the different speaking mock exams. It can help the students to target their revision and notice those weaker areas and strenghts of their oral exam. It contains sections for them to add their final version of their presentation and follow-up questions, feedback from the teachers and student’s notes. The marking scheme is also included for them to know what they are expected to produce to achieve a higher grade.

This handout aims to support Spanish IGCSE students organising Part 2 and 3 of the speaking examination by defining which areas they would like to cover in the General conversation and which in their Topic presentation. It helps them get a better understanding of the exam. I also added an activity I usually set as holiday homework to my set B students in order to support them writing their Topic presentation. I ask students to write a book about themselves and include pictures. (they love this part) after this book is marked and corrected, we discuss which chapter they enjoyed more writing about and we discuss how we can use that for their oral exam.
