This resource has two parts - translation flashcards and a GCSE reading comprehension on Christmas. Flashcards: 28 sentences about Christmas to translate into Spanish, on flash cards which can be printed off and cut up so the answers appear on the reverse (use the PDF). The translations use a wide range of tenses, structures and, of course, Christmas vocabulary. This is one way to keep practising language skills, whilst bringing in some festive cheer. Reading comprehension: 3 people talk about their Christmas and pupils must chose which of the 8 statements are said by each person.
