Another good old fashion dictation on my school (144 words). Enjoy and don't forget to feedback! :-) Would suit Yr9/Yr10

Here is a running dictation in Spanish I prepared for my Yr10 after my summer holidays of 2014. The idea is to print the word file, cut it in strips and stick it around the room. Print 2 copies for big class. The students work in pairs. You give them a time limit, maybe 1 minute to start with during which one student comes to the piece of text to read and try to remember what he/she can. Then he/she goes back to write down what he/she can remember whilst the other person goes to read and try to remember more. They keep swapping around. Once you think they are more or less done, you can correct with the PowerPoint presentation. I get my students to underline/tick every word they get right and write what they are missing in a different colour. After that, there are some comprehension questions about the holidays followed by some creative writing on what happened next. I have also included what really happened next to compare with what they come up with. Enjoy and please feedback! :-)

Another good old fashion dictation on my holidays about Normandy (100 words) followed by translation and using it to adapt about own past holiday. Using past and future tense. Enjoy and don't forget to feedback! :-) Would suit Yr9/Yr10

Another good old fashion dictation on my pastimes (297 words). Some complex vocab. In the Powerpoint, you have the answer so the students can check their work in smaller chunks, correct their errors. Then there are 10 comprehension questions followed by find the French in the text (useful expressions). Enjoy and don't forget to feedback! :-) Would suit Yr9/Yr10/Yr11
