This lesson shows learners how to give advice in Spanish, and has several 'problems' that can be developed and used to practice the advice language. I have also included a 'Ser and Estar' poster making activity because we think about inherent permanent aspects of a person and ones that are changeable in this class.

Learners read a Spanish text with the teacher about what Mexican children do for their birthday, and answer questions about it. Learners study the months, sing the months, and write about their own birthdays.

Exchange personal information like telephone numbers and where you live, through situations like meeting in a cafe, or exchanging business details. Roleplay being grown up.

I show the learners the 3 bears and their belongings to teach the vocab, then we have hunts to find the objects that I have put out on the tables.\nWe learn the song and pretend to be each of the 3 bears, practicing our different voices for baby, mummy and daddy.\nGoldilocks turns up for the book, which I read to the learners, before giving them a copy to colour and take home.

Based on a short story I read at school, this document gives students instructions to produce a play in Spanish to perform for other learners - ideal to encourage the study of language.

Some colouring sheets with opposites all related to animals. We try and invent actions for these words and incorporate them into a Spanish dance to the Hawaii five o tune.

Inviting people out, saying how you feel, giving reasons\u000band using verb patterns

For anyone not familiar with the game uno, your object is to be the first to get rid of your cards, having put down on a similar colour or number/ instruction. These cards have no number figures or colours, just words, so before the children play they may choose to colour the cards and add the symbols, or they can just cut them out and play as they are. I encourage learners to say the Spanish aloud and challenge each other on the meaning.

I will wait for you! There are many examples of the future simple in this Matt Monroe song (that you can download from Amazon for pence), and because he is English the words are very clearly pronounced. Activities to open the song for learners.

Happy birthday to you song to colour in a sing, birthday activity mini snap game, and a calendar to note all our friends' birthdays.

Learners complete a checklist indicating if they find a given aspect of a type of holiday to be a good thing of a bad thing. Learners look at the example scripts, then create their own texts giving the advantages and disadvantages of a place they have visited.

Match the pictures of animals to the words - so many are easy to guess. Complete your book - all you need to do is write in 'Este' - this - at the beginning of each sentence, and colour in the animals.

The children use the books to find translations for English polite phrases, then we made posters to display 'Las palabras mágicas' in the classroom.

Several food items, labelled in Spanish, on 2 shelves. Learners write sentences about where their items are in relation to each other. Learners cut out the items so they can be moved about, then listen to each other's sentences and place the items on the shelves as described. Is the final result the same as the picture being described?

I take in lego type bricks to put room stickers on, and once the learners have worked through learning adjectives, room names with pelmanism, and made sentences on paper to describe houses, they create home layouts with the bricks to describe to each other.

There are 2 little folding pages - one about owls and one about fish. The language and actions may be repeated with these two sheets. I have put the chants and the instructions in the lesson plan.

Products of the farm, milking a cow, making a pig's face, finding capital and small letters amongst the chicks and eggs. A fun lesson that requires 4 members of staff the way I did it.

I choose 3 children to hide under a sheet, then get everybody to sing Debajo de la sábana. At the end I choose children to name the people hidden under the sheet. I use a tune from Diez deditos 'Debajo del botón'. The document I have loaded turns into a little guessing display presentation when I have put a flap over the main picture, so the children can guess which character is 'Debajo de la sábana'. Sometimes I write the first letter of the character's name on the flap.
