Speaking is a language skill that learners tend to find very challenging, and increased engagement with language that requires them to both reproduce language they are already familiar with, and to be creative with that language in order to produce new language is ***integral to successful language learning***. The questions focus largely on the ***present tense***, with some examples of tenses such as ***preterite*** and ***conditional***. I like to include tenses we may not have formally covered, as the activity is not solely about ***practising language***, but also about ***actively learning*** it. I encourage students to look for cues and clues in the questions themselves, and this certainly enables them to engage with new or unknown language successfully, and to progress in their learning. ***Read more here:*** **100 SPANISH CONVERSATION STARTERS FOR ADVANCED BEGINNER SPANISH TO INTERMEDIATE SPANISH STUDENTS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/spanish-conversation-starters-1-12898239](https://) **SPANISH CONVERSATION STARTERS TRANSLATION WORKSHEETS #1** This set of ***Spanish conversation translation worksheets*** is a companion activity to ***Spanish Conversation Starters 1***, though it works just as well as a ***standalone translation exercise*** for ***advanced beginner Spanish*** and ***intermediate Spanish*** students. The content mirrors that of the conversation starters, and really does help students consolidate and embed essential ***advanced beginner Spanish*** to ***intermediate Spanish*** language across all key language skills. All the sentences are in question format. There are ***200 translation questions*** in total: ***100 from Spanish to English***, and then ***repeated from English to Spanish***. Translation is a specific skill that students need to work on carefully and gradually as they progress in their language learning. It’s quite common for beginner language learners to attempt to translate word for word from their first / home language, and though this will work occasionally, it frequently leads to errors. ***Read more here:*** **200 SPANISH CONVERSATION TRANSLATIONS FOR ADVANCED BEGINNER SPANISH TO INTERMEDIATE SPANISH STUDENTS** [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/spanish-conversation-translation-worksheets-1-12999437](https://) ***The activities broadly address the following themes:*** = personal information = family & routines at home = hobbies & free time = likes & dislikes = local environment = food & drink = school & studies = sport & healthy living = countries & languages = weather & seasons ***Have a browse in my store for more Spanish resources, including special offer bundles and freebies.*** **¡MUCHAS GRACIAS Y BUEN APRENDIZAJE!**
