This document is a vocabulary mat that contains different key verbs in Spanish and expressions. Ideally it is designed for Y8/Y9 students but can be used also in GCSE as it includes: Key verbs in three different tenses (present / preterite / near future). Opinions and reasons.

This is a quick revision on the topic of **school, rules, uniform **with some key verbs in the preterite / Preterite Indefinite (Simple past) and some conditional and near future verbs. This could be use with different groups based on volume of work, complexity, etc. (Y8 to Y11 - Use this the Y8 to Y11 range with discretion). Match up the Spanish with the English. Complete the missing gaps in the parallel translation. Students create their own sentences by adding more and more information based on what they did before. Notice that this could be different to what you have taught and this could be used as a starter, plenary of simply as an additional task. Answers provided.
