Mat that students can use to revise ser and estar and when doing exercises as a reference or when studying the rules . It includes time phrases and both ser and estar conjugated in different Indicative tenses.
This is the worksheet I put together using different internet websites and some of my own exercises for my students of Year 13.
It worked well and students got an intense practice.

Canción de Nena Daconte para practicar el Futuro con IR+INFINITIVO.
Los dos vídeos adjuntados vienen con subtitulos. En uno de ellos los subtitulos tienen errores y los alumnos han de corregirlos.
I used Coming soon, Anjelika Rose and Komika Text fonts to create the Publisher document.
Duplicate and reduce to A4 so that students have two small gameboards each.
In one they allocate their own boats. In the other one they take notes of the boats the hit or miss.
This resource includes 4 translation challenges. One includes 2 connectives challenges and the other one includes 2 tenses challenges.
Answers are provided.
Two posters, one for ser and another one for estar.
We have them near the board in class and students find it helpful when completing translations in A2. They can all have a quick look when encountering the verb “to be”.
¡Al fin acabé!
I have finally finished putting together oral questions to practice for the speaking.
This is a 26 pages booklet with a few hundred questions that students can use to practice but also to research some topic areas.
First couple of pages also include info about the oral examination and some tips.
And then, there is a bank of idioms that students can use with translations and examples of the idioms so that they can see how they would be used. They are all grouped per topic but can be used for lots of other topics.
This booklet includes the AQA mark scheme, a quotes exercise, 11 essay exercises that come with bullet points and 8 essay titles without a bullet point.
I added as well for my students essay phrases so that they can have it all in one place.
The A3 planner is basically a sheet that we use when writing an essay in class or that students can use at home to structure their essays a bit more.
I added some teacher feedback points that I normally highlight so that students see what they have to amend, change or add. I had the feeling that I was always writing the same things regarding the stucture and this teacher feedback box makes the marking a bit quicklier.
Regarding the accuracy and errors I tend to use a blue highlighter for the errors that I think that they can correct themselves. Then, next lesson, they have to show me their corrections. If the structure is not quite what they need, I tend to ask them to staple a cue card and write down one of the paragraphs again following the feedback I give them.
This is a display ideal for the languages area corridor or for a classroom that includes 22 A3 slides with lots of ideas for Alevel students to study and revise independently for their language courses. It includes tips on how to revise more effectively using practice testing, flashcards, a study schedule, memrise, a study group, active recall and many more.
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.
I have put together 3 written mock papers for my students who have studied Pan's Lab.
They include 3 translation exercises following the AQA structure of the specification paper they have provided.
3 Pan's Lab papers.
Mark scheme for the translations and the translation grid to convert it into marks.

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 is one of the workshops I do before the exam. We focus on some little things that may make students lose marks. like negatives, verbos de cambio, if clauses, perfect tenses and tener expressions.
There are also three literature gapfils for them to practice with.
Resource includes a ppt and the student worksheet.
