Hello! My name is Delia and I´ve been teaching English and Spanish as foreign languages for more than 15 years now.
At present, I teach Spanish in the PYP system.
The resources I sell in my shop are mainly card games. I use them to spice up my lessons and have the kids talk in the target language as much as possible.
I hope you find them useful and enjoyable!

This is a classic game of matching cards. I use it as an inquiry activity before I actually teach the vocabulary. It is designed to introduce and practice vocabulary related to fruits and vegetables. Students can play three different games: matching, memory and bingo.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR MATCHING GAME:
Print the document one-sided, laminate it and cut out the cards.
Split the students into groups.
Give each group a set of cards.
Ask the students to match the picture cards with the word cards.
Time the activity and count the points for each group.
Repeat at the beginning of the class, or between activities, until the students are able to match all the pairs correctly.
This is a quick, simple way for the students to activate their prior knowledge, make connections to the languages they speak through cognates, cooperate and learn from each other.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR MEMORY GAME:
Print the document one-sided, laminate it and cut out the cards.
Split the students into groups.
Give each group a set of cards.
Ask the students to put all the cards face down.
Students take turns to pick up two cards to match the picture with the words.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR BINGO GAME:
Print the document one sided and laminate.
Cut out all the word cards.
Cut in half the picture boards to make 4 bingo boards
Put the word cards in a pile face down.
Take one card and read the word. The student who has the picture matching the word says “BINGO!”
The first student to complete his board wins.
This game is designed to practice food and drink and the verbs ¨comer¨ and ¨beber¨.
Print the document one-sided, laminate it and cut out the cards.
Distribute all the cards randomly to the students.
Select a student to begin by reading his card out loud and then putting it down.
The other students listen attentively to each question, answer it if they have the answer card and then they read the next question. The game is over when all the cards are down.

Directions:
Cut out the cards along the dotted line and laminate. For bigger classes, you might want to print several copies of each set.
Give out all the cards in the set to the students. It is important to use all the cards.
Choose a student to go first. I usually do that by a counting rhyme.
Have the selected student read the question at the bottom of the card aloud and then put the card down.
The student who has the card with the answer then reads that answer aloud.
This student will then read the question at the bottom of their card and put the card down. Play continues in this fashion until all of the cards have been played. The game will end with the same student who started play.
Every card in the set is connected to a card before it and a card after it. To keep the game moving at a quick pace, all students need to pay attention to every question that has been asked.
I tell my younger students that this is a magic game and that the magic only works if you pay attention, which is actually true. The magic happens in the end, when the question on the last card actually matches the answer on the very first card.
Enjoy!
