This resource aims to revise the topics of family, descriptions, pets and colours. There is a reading comprehension created with questions and answers included. The questions are extended and can be differentiated as the latter ones are more difficult. The reading also allows students to revise and consolidate verbs. The students should then aim to produce a similar written text using that as a guide. A peer assessment sheet is also included which reminds students of what they need to include and sentence starters are included for each topic. This allows students to work independently to form their own paragraph and hints are given to use verbs and adjectives correctly. The student then uses this same sheet to peer mark another persons work and all the hints and sentence starters allow students to mark work carefully.

The resources aims to encourage the use of the target language in the classroom and help students understand the target language used by the teacher.

Peer assessment is a GREAT way to save timing marking and encourage students to think carefully about their work. This also gives students time to reflect on their mistakes and improve them. I have attached a few examples of peer assessment forms that I have used in my French/Spanish lessons. The forms can be adapted easily based on the topic you are teaching. I have used these forms these peer assessment forms in year 7 all the way up to year 11! Super easy to use for students and easy for teachers to instantly see what students have included/not included in their work and work on targets.

Objective: to revise numbers and be able to describe quantities of food in Spanish. The lesson was originally designed for a year 8 class. This lesson would be good for a cover lesson or a less teacher led lesson. There are a few activities that are simple for students to complete with minimum guidance. I originally used this for a challenging class with many behaviour issues and they worked better with back to back exercises. Activity 1 - Revision of numbers. Students have to match the Spanish correctly to the numbers. Answers are included. Activity 2 - Students translate the quantities from Spanish to English. Answers are included. Many were able to distinguish answers quickly with the help of cognates and this was also a good opportunity for students to use dictionaries and work independently. Activity 3 - A listening exercises where students write the quantities for each food. The listening track is on the slide and all answers are included. Activity 4 - Reading comprehension with questions in English. Answers are provided. Activity 5: - Signature dish writing task to summarise all of the above.
