Señora Renouf's French & Spanish Resources

I did my undergraduate degree in French and Spanish at the University of Cambridge and my PGCE at King's College, London. I teach French and Spanish from KS3 to KS5. When starting out I realised that there weren't many high-quality resources available to download or available at my school so I spent hours and hours creating my own! I'd love to share them with you. There are lots of engaging games and AFL activities available. Lots of my resources are geared towards the more able students.

GCSE Spanish class dominoes

£12.00Save 33%
6 Resources
Perfect class game for revision or a starter. These sets of dominoes are suitable for top set as they include a range of tenses and complex structures. My students love this game as they play against the clock and you can use the same set several times to see if they can beat their own time. Cut up the dominoes in advance of the class and shuffle them. Each student is given a domino with one English sentence followed by a non-matching Spanish sentence. Differentiation: the dominoes with * at the beginning of the Spanish sentences are the hardest ones for the most able. You could also give the most able more than one domino. Give students a couple of minutes to work out what their Spanish sentence means. They can confer and use their books. The teacher starts the time and reads out the first domino with the *** and English sentence only. The person with the Spanish translation for that sentence then reads out the Spanish followed by the next English sentence. Whoever has the Spanish translation for that sentence then reads out their domino until someone reads out the last domino with the same English sentence as the teacher’s domino. You can then swap the dominoes and do the same activity again to see if the class can beat their time. You could record the times and see if one class can do it faster than another class.

Activity to practise all four skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) in French around giving opinions on leisure/ free time activities. I have used this activity with a high ability year 7 or 8 class or with a year 9 class as revision. Use with grids in Word documents. Students complete in teams – one student per team may be on their feet at any one time. Filled in grids of the model text need to be stuck up around the room. One student per team goes to the model text, remembers what they can and dictates it to their team member, who fills in the empty grid (one word per box). Model texts may not be taken down. Students may not stand by model text and shout bits of their text back to their team (reading and writing). First team to finish wins but there are also points for accuracy. One point is available per box completed.
