Entire unit of plans and resources for the weather in Spanish. The plan includes weekly consolidation activities, audio of all vocabulary and information about the language. All resources are included and there are lots of fun games and activities.
Vocabulary taught:
hace frío – it is cold
hace calor – it is hot
nieva – it snows
llueve – it rains
está nublado – it is cloudy
hace viento – it is windy
hay tormenta – there is a storm
hace sol – it is sunny
Students will learn eight phrases to describe the weather. They will practise using the vocabulary by playing games such as, ‘What’s missing’ and ‘Quick flash’. Students will also revise the days of the week and play a ‘quiz’ to test their knowledge. They will then link the vocabulary for weather and days of the week to listen to a weather forecast in Spanish. Using their listening skills, students will compare what they hear, to a picture forecast and say if they think it is ‘verdad’ (true) or ‘falso’ (false). Working in pairs, they will complete weather forecasts for different cities in Spain and the UK, practicing their listening and speaking skills. They will present a weather forecast in front of the class and research what the weather is like in Spanish cities, comparing it to the weather in the UK. Activities are designed to encourage oracy skills and collaborative learning. Each lesson has opportunities for self assessment and teaches language learning strategies. Students will be enthusiastic about Spanish and eager to learn more!
