“¿Qué pasa, blog? Soy rapero y YouTubero”, is a comprehensive practical study guide for Edexcel GCSE Spanish that will help your students to succeed in their exams. It uses humour and a fresh engaging story, written in the first person from the point of view of a 15 year old boy called Alex. Alex lives in England but he is bilingual in English and in Spanish. He spends every summer at his grandparent´s in San Sebastian, Northern Spain. There, he learns about Spanish culture, food and festivals, before coming back to school in England.

This practical study guide has been written to facilitate practice and learning of the Edexcel Spanish GCSE syllabus. The resource is divided into 22 blogs with follow-up exam practice questions, plus there is a final worksheet on characterisation, which links to the A level syllabus. There are sound recordings of all 22 blogs, so that students can listen to the blogs while reading.
Each blog includes at least one GCSE Spanish topic and overall the resource covers all the main GCSE Edexcel topics. To help students learn vocabulary relevant to the GCSE topics, the blogs include words from the Edexcel vocabulary list.
In addition, each blog has one or more grammar teaching points. A table with a list of both the GCSE topics and the grammar points used in this booklet can be found on pages 6 and 7. Each blog has around 150 words. The resource can be used in different ways: to complement your teaching, as a revision booklet, for independent study, to set homework or for cover lessons.
This resource can be differentiated. For lower level students, we suggest that you use the texts as reading exercises, whilst higher level students, can listen to the blog first and attempt to answer the questions before reading the text. All students will benefit from listening to the sound recordings which accompany the resource.
