I was lucky enough to find a story I can relate to most of the topics covered in the AQA A2 exam. It is some info about a place called Auroville (in India) and the idea seems fascinating to me and fortunately my students liked it too so feel free to have a look and use it in your lessons if you find it useful. There is a bit of everything: Short intro, Reading, Listening (+transcription), Speaking, Writing + some activities. Topics that can be included: ENVIRONMENT, THE MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY, CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL ISSUES. And for that reason I think it is perfect for a quick revision. Comments always welcomed!

Do you want to know what is the most expensive restaurant in the world? Well... there is Google and there is also this stupendous presentation that not only includes that but there is also a list of the most expensive food one can get from around the world. The purposes of this Powerpoint are to revise high numbers, practicing the vocab related to the topic of food and a healthy diet and showing your students part of the Spanish culture. You will find some help in a PDF and in the notes included in the PowerPoint. I hope you and your students like it! Also... it's free! :D

A simple set of 54 speaking cards on the topics of: ENVIRONMENT •Pollution •Energy •Protecting the planet THE MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY •Immigration •Integration •Racism CONTEMPORARY SOCIAL ISSUES •Wealth and poverty •Law and order •IT Just print and play! To be honest, I love these cards simply because they are so easy to store (can easily fit into the palm of your hand) and the students can take them with them as either homework or practice. Somehow students are keener to work on a small card rather than the normal A4 format for some reason. I guess it looks like less hard work when it's really the same :) .

This is a card game I created for my shyest Y11. I simply used one card once a week and it worked miracles. Most of them feared having that blank page feeling and with these cards they were able to focus on a target (which they found quite helpful) and of course they also love a bit of competition.

A simple set of speaking cards on the topic of the environment. Just print and play!
