Telepathy is an inventive speaking activity that I found on TES a long time ago and have adapted many times. I have left the original instructions on the note part of the slide. This one practices the verb habiter, près de, loin de, types of dwellings and places in towns.

Simple match-up activity, Spanish free time activities and immediate future. Match up the sentence starter with the second part of the sentence. Time expressions included, to help identify indicative tense vs immediate future tense.

Two pages of sentences with a mistake in each, which the students have to identify and explain. The top part is more advanced, the bottom part is less advanced. Method - cut out the sentences and glue onto strips of card. Each student has their own pile (or a pile can be shared by two or three). Once the error is identified - the student brings the strip up to explain it to the teacher. Objective - to be the first to deplete their piles of sentences. Tips - to make it a more physical game - have the students at a good distance away. They must run to the front of the class to do their explaining.

Telepathy is an inventive speaking activity, involving humour and repetition. It is fantastic for getting reticent students to speak out loud. This Telepathy practices adverbs, with leisure activities, chores, musical instruments and sports. I have left the original instructions on the note part of the slide. Some of the adverbs are rather intense (eg taimadamente) so feel free to make changes!
