I am a languages teacher who has, over the years, created many resources for teaching French and Spanish. Here I am sharing a few of these, in the hope it makes a hard-working teacher's life a little easier at a time when they need something quickly. Often adding more resources, so watch this space!

Las asignaturas y la aula escolar - School Subjects and the Classroom - Connect 4 Game - Spanish

(0)
A 36-slide Powerpoint to introduce vocab items in Spanish related to school: the classroom and school subjects. There is an individual slide for each vocab item to aid teaching as well as a vocab list and Connect 4 board game with counters. The game needs to be played in Edit mode otherwise the counters won’t move. I usually split groups into 2 and have them compete to remember key vocab/phrases and make it more difficult for more able groups, e.g. put the sentences into different tenses, etc.
