A great instant reference resource for students focusing on high-frequency Spanish adjectives. I’ve found that the lists are a great learning support resource, and they’re really popular with students too. They work well when students keep them carefully in learning files or folders for current and future reference. They also work well printed double-sided and laminated for small-group work in class.

This list is a second collection of 25 high-frequency Spanish adjectives that I’ve found are ideal for beginner Spanish into intermediate Spanish learning programmes - it’s an important step in language learning to ensure that students quickly develop a useful Spanish adjectives vocabulary bank, are able to recognize Spanish adjectives, and are confident with the meaning of those adjectives in English - at that point we can move swiftly on to looking at adjectival agreement, producing more complex and descriptive language, and using the adjectives in a communicative and practical context, which is essential for progressing in language learning.

The purpose of the list isn’t to simply learn all 25 adjectives by rote: it’s a longer-term reference resource that students use for example when they’re writing creatively, preparing written texts, or working with their talk partner to develop speaking skills. My students also use their vocabulary reference lists to help them audit their developing Spanish vocabulary in general.

There are two alphabetical lists - one Spanish-English, and one English-Spanish, as I’ve found that most language students prefer to have both as a reference resource. There are two backgrounds to choose from - Spanish flag, which I generally use for Spanish vocabulary display, and plain.

The list is a great time-saver for teachers too - if you’re preparing resources focusing on adjectives in Spanish for your students, the list is a good starting point.

Have a browse in my store for more Spanish vocabulary lists, and a wide range of other Spanish teaching and learning resources, with Spanish resource boxes, special offer bundles, and lots of freebies.

¡MUCHAS GRACIAS Y BUEN APRENDIZAJE!

SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES I HAVE WHO HAS GAMES

**PRIMARY SPANISH KS3 FRUITS & VEGETABLES I HAVE WHO HAS THREE GAMES @ £1.30 EACH** *I have Who has?* is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing *Spanish target language*. The games feature a range of fruits and vegetables in *Spanish*, with **Set 1** focusing on fruits, **Set 2** on vegetables and **Set 3** on a combination of fruits and vegetables. The games have a *multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading*, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. They're perfect for *pronunciation practice* too - I point out *particular phonemes, accents and sounds* too - such as the ***tilde on the letter ñ***, and how important that is in creating the correct sound of the word. The aim of the game is to create a *Spanish sentence chain* as quickly as possible, starting with ***Tengo la primera tarjeta***, and ending with the final card, ***Tengo la última tarjeta***. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner learners, but I’ve also played the game with my older adult learners, who really enjoy it too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in colour if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning. **There are 28 fruits featured in the game**: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon. **with 29 vegetables**: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini. All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students *infer meaning from context*, supported by the *visual prompts and clues* - this in turn supports them in developing their *Spanish language skills* in the longer and more complex sentences. There is *implicit input on grammatical concepts* such as *adjectival agreement, gender, definite, indefinite and partitive articles and position of adjectives, either preceding or proceeding the particular noun*. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The *question card template* provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their *developing Spanish language knowledge creatively and practically*, as they make game cards for the class - this is a really popular activity with my students. Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. I’d definitely recommend you laminate the cards, despite the extra prep and expense. They’re far more learner-friendly, and they will last for absolutely years. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, reading out loud and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their *best Spanish accent*, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the cards in the correct order. The game works best played against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - can students beat beat their own time record? ***Have a browse in my store for more Spanish games, and a wide range of other activities, with lots of freebies too!*** I've included a selection of my popular *Spanish* freebies you may not have seen in my store. *This bundle and accompanying products consist of non-editable files in a zipped format.
