This is a triple worksheet (three pages) about future plans (not future jobs as such but more general: I'm going to take a gap year, go to university, learn to drive, etc). Sheet 1 is a vocabulary sheet for this topic. Sheet 2 has some simply match-up and gap-fill tasks to introduce key vocabulary. Sheet 3 has four sample paragraphs about people's future plans. There are questions testing comprehension but also getting pupils to highlight useful language such as time phrases, connectives, etc. The idea is to get them to think about how they can write sophisticated paragraphs about this topic.

It contains a series of questions or gap-fill sentences related to a 2017 Youtube video about immigration from Mexico to the U.S. (I slowed the video down to 0.75 speed for the first listen, then played it at normal speed. This seemed to work well.) Please check the accompanying video (not produced by me) is still available before downloading the worksheet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiNHOEm_kHg

Some are already filled in, which gives the students a guide to how to fill in the rest. (There is another version of this containing all the answers which you could project on to the board for pupils to check their answers.) Side 2 is for reference. It contains all the regular verb endings for AR, ER and IR verbs in the present, preterite and future tenses. There are also notes about irregular verbs and stem-changing verbs.

For the KS5 'Racismo' sub-topic. The double-sided worksheet contains two tasks: 1) An introductory gap-fill activity (text summarising what SOS Racismo is and does) 2) An audio-visual activity where students watch a video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi1Xm0sqYr0 ) then answer the 11 accompanying questions. To complete task 2, pupils must watch a Youtube video of an interview with the president of SOS Racismo, who gives examples of racism, including his own experience, and some measures for combatting it. The video gives various other facts about racism in Spain. I would recommend that you reduce the speed of the video to 75% by selecting the Settings icon at the bottom of the video (not available on some tablet apps but visible on PCs), then clicking Speed > 0.75 PLEASE CHECK that the video is still available before downloading the worksheet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi1Xm0sqYr0 This sheet will probably take up most of the lesson by the time you have watched the video twice (pausing it to give students a chance to write), gone through the answers and discussed the issues raised. Alternatively, it could be set as a homework. (Images are public domain from openclipart.org unless otherwise credited)
