A set of 5 activities and answers in Spanish for students studying Almodóvar’s film Julieta, at A level, Pre U or similar level (16+), intended for when students are about to watch the film or have just watched it. This is an alternative to my previous resource which used the same overview material, but was in the format of a traditional reading comprehension. This format incorporates 5 different activities, each of which allow for more active manipulation of the language, so it is important that the activities are not completed superficially – allow sufficient lesson time during each activity to focus on the content of the texts as well as the grammatical or syntactical aspects of the language. This content could be used for 1-2 lessons or 1 lesson and homework.

A variety of lesson activities on the topic of ecology (ce que je fais pour aider l’environnement) / environment and practising using negatives - ne pas, ne jamais and ne que.

Table of all vocab used in lesson is included for if you want to upload it to your own Quizlet / spreadsheet. Enough activities for 1-3 lessons depending on ability of group.
