The student on the right (who doesn’t know the category) has two options:
To make a higher bid (7 in this case)

Hola, teachers!
I’m sharing with you an activity about unit 2 AQA A-level El ciberespacio. Personally, I use it to introduce the unit. It’s a speaking activity but it can also be used as a writing one- with whiteboards, for example.
It tackles topics that we’ll address later on the unit so I like it to start with the unit. It’s about social media, the right age to have your first mobile phone, the access to internet…
Please leave a review if you download it :)
I hope you like it!
You’ll find different activities about holidays:
quick warm-ups with vocabulary
speaking games
prompts to create stories
an example of a short story about past holidays.
I find this useful for groups with A1/A2/ Year 7, 8 and even 9.
Hope you find it useful too! If you use it, share it with me on Instagram :) @hola_teachers

**Resource designed to teach the conditional tenses to A-level students. **
To address this grammar point, we first show the grid to the students to learn
how to form the sentences
what they express
the translation in English
The second part of the activity includes a speaking exercises with mini-whiteboards. If you prefer to do it in a written way, it’s also fine.
This activity is focused on the 3rd conditional.
We show them some situations that happened in the past in different Hipanic countries and they tell us what they would have done.
These types of sentences are great for Paper 3 (speaking exam). If they have a card about a dictator, they can say what they would have done, for example.
It’s also great for Paper 2 (essays on novels or films). After doing the analysis, they can say what they would have done as the director or the author.

The battle of the preterite!
A game to practise the Spanish verbs in their preterite forms.
How to play:
"IN PAIRS. Each person needs a highlighter/pen.
I’ll give you a sheet with some verbs in their preterite forms. I will tell you the verb in the past IN ENGLISH and you will have to find that same verb in SPANISH and highlight it. Take 2 minutes now to read those verbs.
The player with more highlighted verbs and less mistakes is the winner."
This resources includes:
the teacher’s presentation with the instructions and the verbs in English
the student’s worksheet that needs printing
In addition to that, the students add the translation of those verbs and after the game, I challenge them to write the same verbs but in the imperfect tense.
My students absolutely loved this game! This idea was inspired by one of @teachingteacup 's post <3 Follow me on intsgram to see more: @hola_teachers
Hi there!
I’ve posted a series of icebreakers for the first days on my Instagram @hola_teachers. One of them is this one: ¿ESTÁS DE ACUERDO?
The game consists in showing the students some statements and they tell us if they agree or not. If they do, they move to one side of the classroom. If not, they move to the other side. Once they answer, we prompt discussion and ask further questions.
In this case, I have introduced some statements that can help me to explain some of the classroom rules. For example, “I’m addicted to my phone”. After doing that sentence, I make clear when we use the phones in the classroom. Similarly, “I have the fear of speaking in public”. It’s a good way to tell them how important communication is in the MFL classroom.
These are the ones I’m going to use this year. Hope you find it useful :)
This is a presentation to explain the imperfect and the preterite tense in Spanish. It can be used with GCSE and A-level groups. It includes:
uses of each tense (explanation in English)
examples and reasons why each tense is used
grids with the formation of these tenses - including irregular verbs
4 activities (2 for the imperfect, 2 for the preterite). 2 of them are aimed at GCSE learners/beginners and 2 are aimed at !-level students or advanced.
Use them as cue cards as well! Print 4 of them per sheet and keep it in your classroom. If a student struggles with the tenses, pass it to them to help them!
