Christmas is coming! I wasn’t quite satisfied with doing just one Spanish Christmas quiz, so I made two! You can use the BIG Xmas Quiz (25 questions) to take up a whole lesson and the Mini Xmas Quiz (12 questions) to round off the second half of a Christmas lesson. I know that sometimes buying resources feels like a gamble, so I’ve put these two together so that you can be sure to get the lesson you need. Both quizzes are highly interactive. The BIG Xmas Quiz allows students to choose the order they do questions (advent calendar style) so they can aim for the questions with more points, but it’s up to you whether those points are just for the choosing team or whether everyone can go in. Personally, I like giving the first team ten seconds to answer then open it up to everyone else. The BIG Xmas Quiz also includes music (links to Youtube, make sure you enable external content when prompted) and some GCSE linked tasks (translation, describing pictures, culture) slyly slipped in. The Mini Xmas Quiz also teaches both language and cultural elements in an engaging, but also branches out beyond just Christmas themed questions. The question types also vary, but all involve minimal writing (multiple choice, order sorting, matching up images to text). Both quizzes come in Target Language and English versions. As well as these Key Stage 3 versions, there are also KS4 versions available as a bundle. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

This quiz includes 7 different rounds with a total of 35 questions, plus 5 bonus tie-breaker questions. Designed to be something fun for the end of the year, it nonetheless has educational value, teaching about French-speaking cultures and current affairs, and even sneaks in a bit of vocabulary and grammar (without ever mentioning the g word itself). One of the rounds includes links to YouTube videos, with the videos integrated into the Powerpoint. If you don’t have a version of Powerpoint that supports integrated online videos, the link for each one is given in the slide notes. The quiz is provided in two flavours: English language (questions and most answers in English) and Target Language (all questions and answers in French), so you can pick the version that best fits your class. There is also a KS4 version available separately or as part of a bundle with this one. The rounds are split off into sections, making it is easy to move them around or skip to a particular part if you don’t think you’ll have time to do the whole thing. The answers are given at the end of each round, so you can quickly wrap up if you find yourselves short on time. IMPORTANT: For the videos to work, you must click Enable Content when powerpoint starts. All the images in this Powerpoint have either been created by me or carefully sourced from copyright-free or Creative Commons sources. Some slides are interactive and, as well as including videos and animation, have different images that will appear depending on which answer you select, to provide the pupils a clue. Please check the notes section for each slide as useful information is provided there for you. Sample questions (in English) for each round (all are multiple choice): Round 1: Y’a pas photo ! Choose the best description for the image. (See preview images) Round 2: La Culture et La Société What date is Mardi Gras this year? Round 3: Les Sports Which French-speaking country beat France in the Round of 16 of Euro 2020? Round 4: Le Mot Juste La danse est mon ______ préféré. Round 5: Chanter comme une casserole Quel duo français de musique électronique s’est séparé cette année ? Round 6: Le Meilleur Traducteur Translate: I have long blond hair. Round 7: Vous êtes au courant ? Thomas Pesquet will be the first French captain of… what? (by the way, there are NO questions about coronavirus or the pandemic because I think we’ve all heard enough about that) Plus 5 more questions in the tie-breaker round! For full disclosure, these are the same as the 2019/2020 quiz. I think this will be the last completely new quiz I create. Coming up with new questions in certain sections is quite difficult. However, if I get the time, I will update this one next year (so if you have purchased it, you will be able to download a refreshed one). Not promising anything though! If you bought the old question of the quiz and wrote a review, please get in touch!

A language mat to stick on the table or hand out to help pupils with the basics. My pupils find the target language section particularly useful.

There is a new version of this quiz! I am keeping this one available for those who bought it in 2019 or 2020 and want to download it again. It will be on sale for the rest of July as a slightly cheaper option too.

This attractive, multilingual display helps support literacy in your French/Spanish classroom. When laid out in the right order (5x3, see image), you can see a map of the world in the background. For this reason, I suggest trimming before putting up on display. For the best effect, laminate with a matte effect. Also available in French/German and in French/Italian at my shop.
