This 86-page workbook is based on the model answers to my writing workbook (available at https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/aqa-french-gcse-writing-workbook-and-model-answers-11646300) and contains 3 reading worksheets for every topic in the new AQA French GCSE syllabus plus answers for every task at the end of the document. Ideal for reading practice and assessments in Key Stage 4, revision and independent work for Year 11, or extension work for more able Key Stage 3 students. This can also be used for cover lessons with non-specialists as the tasks are straightforward and there are answers. As well as the Word document, I have included a PDF in case the fonts are not available on certain computers and the formatting therefore doesn't work properly on the Word doc. All questions and answers are my own, based on the new specification GCSE reading papers, and the photos are from royalty-free websites and it is all therefore photocopiable.

A 52-page workbook with sample writing questions for the new specification Spanish GCSE (AQA), with model answers for each question. There are 6 sections, for the 6 different question types in the new exam, and each section has a sample question for each sub-topic (with vocab taken from the AQA specification vocab list). There are translations (sentences and paragraphs) from English into Spanish for each sub-topic as well, with suggested answers at the end of the document. This will last students for their entire GCSE course, or can be given in Year 11 for revision. Can also be split apart and used for assessments in Key Stage 4, as a time-saver for setting homework or in-class writing tasks, or as extension tasks for high-ability Year 9 pupils, to help them get prepared for the GCSE. Once the students have prepared answers to the longer tasks, they could also be used to help with preparation for the speaking exam. This workbook has been professionally proofread and re-formatted to ensure it is as close as possible to the new specification GCSE.
