Spanish PowerPoint introducing computer vocabulary: @, / headphones, the on/off button, user name, password, CD, memory stick, microphone, the screen, the mouse, the keyboard. The fist slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill. The next section of slides have multiple choice questions. Then there are "what's missing?" slides. The final slide has pictures of all the new vocabulary. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If it’s the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins!

This one slide PowerPoint can be used as a simple 10 minute Spanish warmer/ starter activity to play the game "I spy with my little eye...." The students play this in small groups practising not only classroom vocabulary, but also thinking more imaginatively e.g. clothing, colours and vocabulary such as "hair" and "eyes." Therefore this can be used with a variety of year groups. Enjoy!

Expressions taught: Je suis... intelligent/ intelligente marrant/ marrante patient/ patiente courageux/ courageuse sympa sérieux/ sérieuse calme travailleur/ travailleuse généreux/ généreuse The first slide encourages the students to actively engage with the new vocabulary: working in teams, using their prior knowledge, knowledge of other languages and using a process of elimination to figure out the meanings. They then discuss the pronunciation and question each other before the teacher checks with the whole class. The next slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English, the rules and to drill. Slide 12 recaps the original slide to allow you to check the student's comprehension. The next section of slides have mutiple choice questions. Then there are "what's missing?" slides. The final slide has pictures of all the phrases. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If its the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins! The final slide can be used for revision the following lesson. I usually use my French Battleships/ Lotto Grid Adjectives game after the presentation to progress into using the different forms of être: Vocabulary: Je suis Tu es Il est Elle est On est Nous sommes Vous êtes Ils sont Elles sont sympa. intelligent(s)/ intelligente(s). courageux/ courageuse(s). marrant(s)/ marrante(s). patient(s)/ patiente(s). travailleur(s)/ travailleuse(s). généreux/ généreuse(s). Battleships Game Instructions Firstly I ask the students to work independently in pairs to translate the expressions. I then check the translations and drill pronunciation with the whole class before they play the game. The students secretly choose 5 squares on the top grid and then try to guess which 5 squares their partner has chosen, filling in the bottom grid with “hit” and “miss.” To choose a square say a phrase from the horizontal line and complete the sentence with a phrase from the vertical line. Where the 2 phrases meet up is the square you have chosen. I use the English language sheet to further challenge the students: they should place this on top of the French version and then try to play the game saying the French phrases as far as possible from memory. I allow the really weak students to have the French version next to the English version so they have lots of support, stronger students are allowed a few "sneaky peaks"!

Spanish PowerPoint introducing bedroom furniture vocabulary: En mi dormitorio hay… Una cama. un armario. unas estanterías. una mesa y una silla. unos pósters. una lámpara. un ordenador y una televisión. una puerta. una ventana y unas cortinas. un equipo de música. la pared. una alfombra. The first slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill. The next section of slides have multiple choice questions. Then there are "what's missing?" slides. The final slide has pictures of all the new vocabulary. This can be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love!

Battleships: Expressions: La televisión está El armario está El ordenador está La mesa está La silla está La lámpara está encima de las estanterías. debajo de la cama. delante de la ventana. al lado de la alfombra. detrás de la puerta. Battleships Game Instructions The students love this competitive and fun game! I use this battleships game (which can also be used as a lotto grid) to help students to practise their pronunciation and to reinforce new vocabulary and grammatical structures. Firstly I ask the students to work independently in pairs to translate the expressions. The students then focus on pronunciation and decide the two easiest and two most difficult words to pronounce. I then check the translations and drill pronunciation with the whole class before they play the game. The students secretly choose 5 squares on the top grid and then try to guess which 5 squares their partner has chosen, filling in the bottom grid with “hit” and “miss.” To choose a square say a phrase from the horizontal line and complete the sentence with a phrase from the vertical line. Where the 2 phrases meet up is the square you have chosen. I use the English language sheet to further challenge the students: they should place this on top of the Spanish version and then try to play the game saying the Spanish phrases as far as possible from memory. I allow the really weak students to have the Spanish version next to the English version so they have lots of support, stronger students are allowed a few “sneaky peaks” at the Spanish version and the really strong students aim to refer back to the Spanish version as little as possible. This really helps the students to memorise the vocabulary/structures! Enjoy!

This worksheet has 3 sections, the first is a word match for English and Spanish greetings. Vocabulary: 1. Hola. 2. Buenos días. 3. Buenas tardes. 4. Buenas noches. 5. ¿Qué tal? 6. ¡Fenomenal! 7. Muy bien, gracias. 8. Bien, gracias. 9. Bien. 10. Fatal. The next section is a complete the sentence challenge where certain letters have been removed. Make this more difficult by telling the students to cover up the Spanish words listed above. The next (extra) section involves unjumbling a group of words to find the correct greetings. Again, make this more difficult by telling the students to cover up the Spanish words listed above. Then there is an extension task to create their own crossword. Battleships: Vocabulary: 1. Hola. 2. Buenos días. 3. Buenas tardes. 4. Buenas noches. 5. ¿Qué tal? 6. ¡fenomenal! 7. Muy bien, gracias. 8. Bien, gracias. 9. Bien. 10.

I use this simple presentation to present the 12 hour clock in Spanish. Eliciting the English and drilling the phrases. A fun activity to do is to then say a time which the students make with their bodies (one arm for the big hand, one arm for the small hand). Battleships: Expressions: Es la una Son las dos Son las cuatro Son las seis Son las siete Son las once y cuarto. y media. menos cuarto. y diez. y veinte. menos cinco. menos veinticinco. Plenary/ warmer: I use this 1 slide warmer activity/ pleanary having taught the time (12 hour clock). Give the students a mini-whiteboard each. Click on the presentation and a time will appear e.g. Es la una. The students must draw a clock (analogue or digital) with the correct time. Click again for the extension activity which is a jumbled up time: e.g. y son siete media las. The students must write this in the correct order e.g. Son las siete y media and then draw the clock. An additional extension could be to then change this to the 24 hour clock. There are 4 times to draw and unjumble. This should take approximately 15 minutes. Times covered include: Son las ocho menos cuarto Son las tres y cuarto Son las once menos veinticinco. Son las nueve menos veinte Son las cuatro menos cuarto

Spanish PowerPoint: the Imperfect tense for for descriptions and the time. This focuses on building phrases rather than grammatical rules. Phrases presented: Era la una. Eran las dos. Hacía buen tiempo. No hacía frío. Había mucho trafico. ¡Era increíble! The first slides have the phrase and a picture. Use this to elicit the pronunciation, the English and to drill. The next section of slides have multiple choice questions. The final slide has pictures of all the new vocabulary and asks "¿Qué es?. This can also be used for a Beat the Teacher game, which the students love! The teacher points to a picture and says a word. If it is the correct word the students all repeat it. If it’s the wrong word the students must stay absolutely silent. If they do, they win 1 point. If not, the teacher gets 1 point. Most points wins!

This word document is a Spanish Pet Survey activity to practise talking about pets. Students ask the question: ¿Tienes animales en casa? To which their classmates reply: Sí, tengo ___________________________ No, no tengo un animal. There is a box to remind students how to use plurals: Plurals! Normally we add an s e.g. un perro, dos perros. If the noun ends in a consonant we add es e.g. un ratón, dos ratones. Remember: Un pez, but dos peces. There is also a suggested extension box: Extension: Include names: Se llama = he/she/it is called. Se llaman = they are called. To ensure that the students are using the target language I sometimes secretly choose my "secret policemen" who report students heard speaking in English. At the end of the game they have to perform a forfeit e.g. to sing the names of the animals in the style of an opera singer!

For example, Level 1 = match the cards (picture and French) and discuss the pronunciation. Level 2 = match the cards and then have quick fire questions from French to English, whereby 1 student closes their eyes and their partner reads out the French cards which the student must translate into English from memory. Level 3 = The quick fire questions are from English to French. Following checking there are 2 fun games to play, either pelmenism or a game I learnt in Japan called Karuta. In Karuta the students put the picture cards to one side and spread out the French cards in front of them. I then say the English and the students compete to touch the correct French card first. Whoever touches it first wins the card. The student with the most cards at the end of the game wins. The students love this game!

Euro 2016 Resources Product Description. I have planned this lesson not only to teach vocabulary and facts about football, France and Euro 2016, but also to help the students to respond creatively to their learning and hopefully share their passion for football! The PowerPoint uses matching cards, colourful pictures and animations and YouTube extracts set to music to inspire the students. It is planned to use with students from Years 6-9 (the final task is very open-ended). Slide 2 shows a celebratory image of the 2012 winners – Spain! Slide 3 states the objective: Objectivo: To learn about el fútbol & Euro 2016 and to respond creatively to your learning. Slide 4 has a YouTube link to follow to use with the attached worksheet. This uses the official UEFA promotional video (3 mins 57 secs) and the worksheet builds vocabulary, cultural and factual knowledge such as the locations of the stadiums, their capacities, cultural images and numbers of matches, volunteers, teams etc. The worksheet is differentiated with an Extra! challenge section. The answers are on the first page of the worksheet. Slide 6 introduces key vocabulary and can be used with the matching cards. The students should work in pairs/ groups to match the vocabulary and the picture using their previous knowledge, cognates and a process of elimination. Vocabulary: Un futbolista El guardameta El réferi El estadio La pelota La copa Una bandera Un equipo Una tarjeta amarilla La cancha Una camiseta Unos botines The activity is differentiated as follows: All: Match Up! Most: Perfect Pronunciation Challenge! Some: Quick Fire Questions! (Here the students quiz each other: French to English, English to French, spellings, accents…..). Slides 7 to 18 show each word and the matching picture and colourful animations. Slide 19 has all the pictures for a quick recap. Then there is graded questioning: Slides 20 to 31 have A, B, C multiple choice questions. Slides 32 to 45 are “What’s missing?” slides. Then slide 46 has a YouTube link to the official song and video (3 mins 49 secs) and students should note down new nouns and adjectives expressing the emotions they see and feel (if they don’t know the Spanish they can grab a dictionary later!) The creative challenges are presented on slides 46 and 47, this is to either create an acrostic, a calligramme or a poem (there is a poem template provided). This information is also on the accompanying worksheets. Slide 48 provides the opportunity for reflection. I really hope you and your students enjoy these resources!

This 7 slide PowerPoint revises the personal pronouns. Print out slide 3 for the students to fill in.
