Infinitive structures to exploit in a variety of ways

Something for my year 13s who will be analysing lots of simbolism and messages in SCW posters from the 30s.

I’m targetting some misconceptions and common mistakes with this lesson. We’ll be focusing on: 3rd person opinions Infinitive structures Use of connectives Using es bueno que sea Cuando sea mayor Ojala pudiera structures Generally navegating the GCSE writing mat to construct/extend sentences

Lots of people from varying nationalities with varying levels of education and experience. They all have a reason for emigrating, some due to war and some due to retirement.

First lesson for use with Mira GCSE book. Reading comp attached as well, text was taken from a school website so it is authentic (slightly adapted).

A nice way to start the lesson and get the class focused. First activity is a simple 'spot the odd one out' followed by the same slides copied but with the answers, including pictures. Second activity is a 'what's behind the box' activity.
