This is a VOCABULARY booklet with HIGH FREQUENCY vocabulary that I have noticided is used in the Listening and Reading exam (AQA). What I have done is to go through past papers and annotate the words and categories of words that tend to repeat. For example, connectives, nationalities, crime, poverty, infinitives, numerals, jobs, etc. I have then added extra words so that there is a full list. For example, in the section of “jobs” I have added words like científico, periodista, astronauta, hombre de negocios which have appeared in previous papers but you will find a total of 2 slides full of vocab for jobs. This booklet is a revision tool for students. Teachers can use it to set regular vocab learning and test students as well (it has a scores section at the back). This booklet prints really well in A5.

These are 2 series of resources, one for Y12 and one for Year 13 to train students to deal with summaries. The Year 12 includes a Reading Assessment (version A and B) with 5 questions in each one: Reading comprehension with answers in Spanish Synonyms Summary T, F, NM Translations into Spanish After this assessment, we did a Summaries training session to get better at it. The Year 13 one includes a power point + students notes in which students practice changing from the I/we persons to the he/she/they persons. The aim of this lesson is to get better at manipulating the language.

This resource includes 4 translation challenges. One includes 2 connectives challenges and the other one includes 2 tenses challenges. Answers are provided.

This resource is a market place activity in which students have to work in groups in a carrousel style. Every group has the vocab sheet to gather vocab and create their own glossary plus a reading comprehension sheet to fill in whilst they have the menu. It is important that students divide the work up: some can look up the vocabulary whilst the others can answer the questions. Or, they could all spend some minutes looking up the words first and then answering the questions. You can use the stopwatch website and its timers so that students can see how much time they have left. The aim is that they read the menus and that they get to learn about other countries and their famous dishes whilst consolidating some of the Food vocab they learnt in previous lessons. There are menus for a Basque restaurant, a Catalan restaurant, a Mexican restaurant and the last one is a menu from Costa Rica. This activity takes up the whole hour (if you get every group to look at 2 menus) and I used it at the end of the Food Unit. You can also use the menus for Role Plays the next lesson. If your groups do 2 menus then you can get your students to talk to the rest about the food they learnt that people eat in those countries. I used this activity with a Y7 class and it worked very well. Students were engaged and they loved the role plays we did the following lesson. As a follow up activity you could ask them to design their own menus of other Spanish speaking countries. They could use the computers to do some research and then do their designs.

This mat is for those studying La Casa de BA. in the new Spanish Alevel. It includes quotes, connectives, opinion phrases, intensifiers, idioms, subjunctive phrases and if clauses. Also, verbs that are followed by a preposition. I have tried to select verbs and idioms that apply to the play so that students can improve their essays. It would be useful for the old curriculum A2 students too. At the back, there are verb tables with all the regular conjugations to help students conjugate the verbs.

This booklet is a 25 pages booklet that includes the regular and irregulars that students could have to face using the mnemonics WEIRDO and DISHES. It also includes the subjunctive stem changing verbs, verbs that have a spelling change and IR verbs. Preview does not show much of it but there is plenty of practice. You will also be able to find the Juanes song, A Dios le pido and conjunctions that need the subjunctive. The practice that students have in this booklet includes verb drills for regular and irregular verbs, gapfills (AS style) and translations. Also attached the power point with the Subjunctive Phrases you can find in the booklet and the answer to those match ups. Power point comes with two plenaries: a heads and tails and a Twitter one. NEW: Subjunctive Assessment. I have added an assessment to test students at the end of the unit. NEW: I have updated this booklet in January 2021 and have added the answers. Have also updated the power point.

This resource is a vocabulary booklet for students of Alevel that do Pan´s Lab. I have recently updated this booklet and have opted to translate the words into English. This way the students can use it as a revision tool. It includes a detailed list of vocabulary for the different scenes in the film. It also includes an information sheet for essay structure and a section for parents/carers to fill in when testing their children. I have printed it in A5 and my students have absolutely loved it. I made it for our AS last year but gave a copy to the A2 too. The A2 have found it useful to revise the vocab. Goes really well with my Pan´s Lab MAT, which you can find in my shop :) on TES. You will find the link in my blog :) https://recursossj.blogspot.co.uk/2017/03/alfombrilla-de-el-laberinto-del-fauno.html

Here are the higher level mats I have made for my students. I created a new “more” Spanish mnemonic for them since I really liked the one our French department uses for higher level French language (croissant). I also wanted to encourage them to use other aspects of the language like Direct and Indirect Object pronouns or “verbos de cambio”. We do La casa and El Laberinto and these 2 mats compliment the other ones they have (you can find them in my shop here). I have also included the Chipirones Ladders game I made recently. Whilst students practice with a card or general conversation questions, they have to use the game board and move up the ladders. In each step they have to use certain grammar. There are 2 games, one to just practise chipirones and the other one includes opinion phrases. Students will need a counter and they move their counter one box at a time. The aim is to get to the top of the ladder. Please, note that the stars are only in the first page! The second page has the same but without the stars. :) Hope your students find them useful! Sara

This is a practice booklet with lots of exercises for alevel students. In includes a list of verbs that are conjugated like gustar and the exercises vary from correct the errors, gapfills and translations. Some exercises include sentences about El laberinto del Fauno so if that is the film you are doing, your students will be able to manipulate these verbs and hopefully they will be encouraged to use them more in their essays. I have also included the answers in the same document.

This is my Subjunctive Display, which includes WEIRDO, DISHES and ESCAPA.
