A2 > Food for thought - Refettorio Paris
A wonderful cultural project is the foundation for this lesson where students can practice their listening and speaking skills, do some translation, debate… and all this while working on the topics of the environment, immigration and the multicultural society. I love starting this lesson with…
Today, we are going to a fancy restaurant in the middle of Paris.
I hope your students engage with this lesson at least as much as my students did.

Spain Postcard - Printable
Postcards still exist and these are one of those things I would not like to see as a thing of the past any time soon. It was always lovely to receive one from your friends and family while they were abroad or also when you were the one away from your loved ones.
It could be a great activity to write some words and decorate this printable as a way to revise the topic of holidays for example or perhaps these could be handy if you want to create an exchange with another school or already have one. This is just the base. Some other options are:
Imagine you have been on holiday in Spain and you are writing to a friend about it.
Imagine you have won a prize and you are spending an all-included trip in Spain.
Imagine you are a local Spaniard who is writing a friend (who soon will be visiting you) to inform him/her about all the amazing plans you have made for him/her.
Imagine you are going to slip into a bottle a message written in this postcard and then you will toss the bottle into the ocean. You can also present other messages that have been found in other bottles and make them translate them into the target language.
Use it to decorate your classroom, etc.
Feel free to add any more ideas in the reviews section! I hope you find this resource useful.

Book review - Printable (Spanish)
After looking for a while for a basic book review template I decided to create my own in order to get what I was specifically looking for. Maybe you find it useful too. Take a look.
The templates I found were somehow limited or aimed at really young students so I created this personal version. The document is a PDF form so students can fill it in directly on their computers.
You can use them in your lessons, the school library and bookclubs but also for your own book readings to keep track of all those things that stack with you.
Simple, schematic and FREE!!!

Auroville - A2 Revision (Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing)
I was lucky enough to find a story I can relate to most of the topics covered in the AQA A2 exam.
It is some info about a place called Auroville (in India) and the idea seems fascinating to me and fortunately my students liked it too so feel free to have a look and use it in your lessons if you find it useful.
There is a bit of everything: Short intro, Reading, Listening (+transcription), Speaking, Writing + some activities.
Topics that can be included: ENVIRONMENT, THE MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY, CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL ISSUES. And for that reason I think it is perfect for a quick revision.
Comments always welcomed!

Tweetstakes: Spelling on Twitter (Spanish)
These last years I’ve been compiling a collection of linguistic mistakes I happened to read on Twitter. These tweets have been great real examples for my students. They found them fun and challenging. Here it is a small selection of the top 30 and different ways to exploit this freebie.
The presentation is pretty simple:
Students get a tweet and they try to find orthographic mistakes
Click and the mistake is highlighted to confirm or to show what is actually wrong with the text
The students then try to explain why is it wrong
Click again and a linguistic, detailed explanation will appear. You can then teach them the reason in a more detailed manner with the linguistic explanation and the example corrected.

A2 Speaking cards - ENVIRONMENT.pdf
A simple set of speaking cards on the topic of the environment. Just print and play!
To be honest I love these cards simply because they are so easy to store (can easily fit into the palm of your hand) and the students can take them with them as either homework or practice. Somehow students are keener to work on a small card rather than the normal A4 format for some reason. I guess it looks like less hard work when it's really the same :) .
