One of a series of intermediate-level booklets designed to expand students’ vocabulary and sentence structures, and get them thinking and speaking about a range of topics in Spanish. They have links to wider citizenship and global / current affairs issues, so make for good cross-subject connections if you want to involve non-language teaching colleagues. This worksheet / topic booklet focuses on the relationship between humans and other primates, and the importance of conservation. It’s suitable for a good Year 10/11 GCSE group or a first year A-level group. It forms a short unit of project-based work that we would spend 2-3 weeks working through with classes, leading up to a short spoken presentation to assess understanding at the end. Sections include: Vocabulary (with sample sentences for each entry) Useful questions in Spanish for conversational practice A reading comprehension to show the vocabulary in context A dialogue featuring two young people discussing the project’s themes A range of practice exercises, including gapfill and translation There is a “for the teachers” section at the end of the document, including answers to all the activities, so it’s suitable to be used by non-Spanish specialist teachers too, or as cover work.
