A range of well differentiated tasks on the topic of holiday preferences. Help your GCSE students develop reading comprehension skills, extend their vocabulary range and improve their understanding of grammar and sentence structure with these tried and tested exercises. Translate from and into French (Paris - London; London - Paris), self/peer assess, gap fill etc.
This resource is based on pp.18 and 19 of AQA Spanish, Oxford University Press, Hablando de los amigos.
It includes useful strategies for learning key vocabulary and improving and developing confidence in speaking.
Your students will learn how to ...
1) describe themselves and a best friend (character and physical description)

3) use más de and menos de + a number
4) use desde hace + the Present Tense
There are structured, scaffolded translation tasks into and from Spanish.
I have included a higher level reading task requiring students to guess the meaning of more complex vocabulary from context and recognise synonyms.
The worksheets have been meticulously designed and are at least as nicely presented as any resource you might buy from a respectable publisher. When downloaded click on the word 'PREVIEW' and delete .

Find words beginning with various letters of the alphabet. A way to get your students to practise and improve their vocabulary without realising it. Ideal for KS3 students.

These worksheets have been meticulously designed and are at least as nicely presented as any resource you might buy from a respectable publisher. Please don't be put off by the preview image which at times looks distorted with text not fitting into boxes or lines missing from tables (due, I think, to the inclusion of tables/grids/text boxes); the actual resource looks professional in appearance when downloaded.

These 14 attractively presented worksheets will give your students lots of practice using the verb ‘ir’ + the infinitive to form the near future tense. They go specifically with Mira 2 Express, Module 1, but could easily be used as a stand alone resource.

The differentiated worksheets use structured repetition to help students become more confident in recognising and using key verbs, infinitives and vocabulary. A ppt. will help you to introduce the verb 'ir' and a range of common infinitives to help your students form the near future tense. There are 2 more shared ppts. for students to consolidate their learning at their own pace.

I made this worksheet for a Grade 9 student to complement Theme 1, Unit 2 (Technology in everyday life) of the Oxford AQA, GCSE Spanish Higher coursebook. Having covered all the main tenses, indicative and subjunctive, I decided to create some passages for translation into Spanish, each dealing with a specific tense.
I made this worksheet for a very able student to complement p. 24 of the Oxford AQA GCSE Spanish Higher coursebook. I would suggest your students first read 'La evolución de las páginas de citas’ on p. 24 before tackling the quite difficult translation task. There are 2 exercises to practise ‘encuentro + adjective + infinitive’ and ‘tener la oportunidad de + infinitive’ which appear in the text on p. 24.
3 fun ppts. and 2 worksheets to help your students say which subjects they have, who with, on which day and in which room. Practise key verbs ‘j’ai, je n’ai pas, il y a and nous avons’. Use high frequency words ‘aussi, mais, avec’. Practise numbers and days of the week.
Goes with the 2 worksheets ‘My School Timetable 1 and 2’ which are free and great to use as a form of assessment when you have covered this topic.
This worksheet follows on from My Timetable 1. It helps students reinforce the key verbs 'j'ai, il y a, nous avons, je n'ai pas' as well as key vocabulary 'mais, puis, aussi, avec, en salle', etc. + school subjects and the days of the week. I set it as a test for my Y8 students.
Say which subjects there are, what you have (not) got, what we have (not) got on Thursday(s), today etc. A nice worksheet which I set my Y8 middle to low ability classes as a task to reinforce key verbs and vocabulary.
