The resource is free to download, but Terms of Use still apply.

Sopas de Letras are a fabulous way of encouraging learners to engage with the written word in Spanish, refreshing and reinforcing language as they complete the grids. This freebie features a fruits word search with answer key, perfect for beginner Spanish learners of all grades. The fruits include masculine, feminine, singular and plural, with a blend of definite and indefinite articles - this really helps learners think a little more creatively about language, and their new Spanish vocabulary - they may learn la manzana, and it’s useful to give students opportunity to think about grammatical concepts, and how la becomes una for example.

There is a Spanish to English grid, where learners are prompted with the Spanish word, and look for them in Spanish in the grid. For additional consolidation, each grid also features an English word list that they have to complete, really putting their knowledge to the test! Learners can tell in which direction the words are written by looking at the arrow key on each grid. Having a good bilingual dictionary to hand is also a good idea, as this provides a further focus on developing literacy in both Spanish and English, and facilitates learner independence.

There is an answer key grid, so that learners can check their answers - or use for a little extra help if they need it. Answer keys are really essential - they offer learners an additional opportunity to engage with language, and they genuinely enjoy ‘correcting’ their own, and particularly each others’ work! They’re a great teacher time-saver too, which is always a good thing!

The word search is in landscape format, as I’ve found this to be the best format for beginner language learners. This kind of activity is really versatile - I use as starters, refreshers, plenaries or fun-time fillers at any time during the school year, as well as when I’m focusing on fruits in Spanish.

Have a browse in my store for more Spanish word searches, and a wide range of other Spanish teaching and learning materials, with Spanish resource boxes, special offer bundles, resource boxes, and lots of freebies.

SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES I HAVE WHO HAS GAMES

**PRIMARY SPANISH KS3 FRUITS & VEGETABLES I HAVE WHO HAS THREE GAMES @ £1.30 EACH** *I have Who has?* is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing *Spanish target language*. The games feature a range of fruits and vegetables in *Spanish*, with **Set 1** focusing on fruits, **Set 2** on vegetables and **Set 3** on a combination of fruits and vegetables. The games have a *multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading*, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. They're perfect for *pronunciation practice* too - I point out *particular phonemes, accents and sounds* too - such as the ***tilde on the letter ñ***, and how important that is in creating the correct sound of the word. The aim of the game is to create a *Spanish sentence chain* as quickly as possible, starting with ***Tengo la primera tarjeta***, and ending with the final card, ***Tengo la última tarjeta***. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner learners, but I’ve also played the game with my older adult learners, who really enjoy it too. The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font - this is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in colour if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning. **There are 28 fruits featured in the game**: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon. **with 29 vegetables**: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini. All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students *infer meaning from context*, supported by the *visual prompts and clues* - this in turn supports them in developing their *Spanish language skills* in the longer and more complex sentences. There is *implicit input on grammatical concepts* such as *adjectival agreement, gender, definite, indefinite and partitive articles and position of adjectives, either preceding or proceeding the particular noun*. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more! The *question card template* provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their *developing Spanish language knowledge creatively and practically*, as they make game cards for the class - this is a really popular activity with my students. Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. I’d definitely recommend you laminate the cards, despite the extra prep and expense. They’re far more learner-friendly, and they will last for absolutely years. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, reading out loud and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their *best Spanish accent*, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the cards in the correct order. The game works best played against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - can students beat beat their own time record? ***Have a browse in my store for more Spanish games, and a wide range of other activities, with lots of freebies too!*** I've included a selection of my popular *Spanish* freebies you may not have seen in my store. *This bundle and accompanying products consist of non-editable files in a zipped format.

There are a range of ***phonemes and sounds*** too, such as ***the letter j (uvas rojas/ajo)***, which is a sound particular to ***Spanish***, and the***letter ñ (piña / champiñones)***, as the ***tilde + n*** plays a very important role in ***Spanish pronunciation***.

SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES BINGO BUNDLE #1

**PRIMARY SPANISH KS3 SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES BINGO GAMES 200 DIFFERENTIATED BINGO GRIDS AND 80 CALLING CARDS TWO SETS OF BINGO GAMES @ £1.80 EACH IN THE BUNDLE** Bingo games are perfect for language learning, and they're really easy to differentiate. All my students, regardless of age, find playing the games a great way of consolidating their ***Spanish vocabulary***, and ***developing their Spanish language skills*** in general - bingo is absolutely perfect for ***speaking, listening, reading, writing and spelling.*** This bundle comprises two sets of ***100 differentiated bingo grids and 40 calling cards Spanish and English*** so ***200 bingo grids and 80 calling cards in total***. I always play with ***English*** calling cards too, as I've found it's a really great way of further consolidating vocabulary - students have to focus carefully on the language 'switch', and ***translate what they hear really quickly***. It's definitely useful to have calling cards, so that you can keep track of what you're calling out, and it also lets students be the bingo caller too, meaning they can play entirely independently of the teacher. ***There are twelve Spanish fruits in masculine, feminine, singular & plural:*** *the green apple the lemon the oranges the peach the raspberries the pineapple the kiwi the pear the bananas the green grapes the strawberry the watermelon* ***and twelve Spanish vegetables in masculine, feminine, singular & plural:*** *the mushrooms the cauliflower thee carrots the lettuce the cucumber the tomato the cabbage the potatoes the garlic the broccoli the peas the onions* I differentiate my bingo games by using ***picture-only cards***, which are great for general ***vocabulary consolidation and recall, and listening skills***. There are ***80 9-square grids*** in total, and there's a set of color (which I sometimes laminate so that I can just get them out whenever I need to - make sure students have wipe-clean pens on their tables!). I've also included the same grids in black and white - simply print these out. I sometimes give out pages with four grids on, and let students choose which order they play the grids in - they have multiple pages - or sometimes, I get the students to cut out the grids, place them in a small bowl or similar on tables and they then randomly choose grids - depending on the size of your class, you will definitely have several winners per game. ***The grids are designed for all the squares to be crossed off in order to win the game***. I also use ***word-only grids*** to help students focus more on their reading skills, so I've included ***80 Spanish word-only 9-square grids***, 4 per page (10 pages). There are ***40 mixed word and picture grids*** are ideal for ***additional challenge and differentiation***. ***Have a browse in my store for more Spanish language learning games, and a wide range of other Spanish activities, with lots of freebies too!*** *Files are non-editable in a zipped format.

PRIMARY SPANISH FRUITS & VEGETABLES FLASHCARDS POSTERS

**KS3 SPANISH FRUITS VEGETABLES 50 POSTERS FLASHCARDS @ £1.80 each in the bundle** My younger students love to see *Spanish* displays in the classroom, and they also work really well for older beginner *Spanish* learners too. There are ***25 fruits and 25 vegetables, definite article, feminine and masculine, singular and plural - that's so useful as a way into the concept of gender***. I tend to vary my displays quite regularly, and have different posters up at various times of the school year. We use them as *speaking and pronunciation prompts, and for guessing games* too. We don't actually learn 25 fruits or vegetables at this stage, but I use a range that includes some that children may not know yet, such as *starfruit* and *aubergines*. That's ideal for discussing healthy eating, and for generally developing children's vocabulary in their own language too. The posters work really well as flashcards too, and they're great for introducing and practicing language with a 'low-tech' method, giving us all a break from the whiteboard, which children definitely enjoy! **The fruits are:** * green apples * red apple * bananas * cherries * dates * fig * green grapes * red grapes * kiwi * lemon * * mango * nectarine * olives * oranges * papaya * peach * pear * pineapple * pumpkin * raspberry * redcurrants * rhubarb * starfruit * strawberries * watermelon **The vegetables are:** * artichoke * asparagus * beetroot * broccoli * * cabbage * carrots * cauliflower * celery * corn * cucumber * eggplants / aubergines * French/green beans * garlic * leeks * lettuce * mushrooms * onions * peas * red peppers * yellow pepper * potatoes * sprouts * spinach * sweet potatoes * tomato The posters are 8.5 x 11 (A4) portrait size, with two backgrounds to choose from - Spanish flag or black wave. Laminate if you can - they are far easier to work with as flashcards, and as posters, they'll hang really nicely - they'll also last for years! ***Have a browse in my store for more Spanish flashcards / posters, and a wide range of Spanish teaching & learning materials, with lots of freebies too!*** *I've also included a couple of my free-to-download resources that you may not have seen in my store.
