This is a little powerpoint aimed at the AQA Spanish A-Level on the Topic: ‘Monarquías y Dictaduras’ since there have been updates on current affairs I thought it would be a good idea to create a resource based on what the media is reporting.

New A Level AQA - Jóvenes de hoy/ Movimientos Populares - Special Spanish General Elections 28A 2019 I have created a little presentation about the candidates to the last 2019 Spanish General Elections and results so my A Level students get to understand a bit more the context. The topic is very transversal into the topics but I have linked it with ‘Movimientos Populares’ and ‘Jóvenes de hoy, ciudadanos del manana’. This can also be used to mention what sort of policies are relevant now in Spanish society such as the different nacionalisms (la identidad regional), women in Spanish society (la igualdad de los sexos) and I have also addressed how the political campaign has gained a lot of attention in social media (ciberespacio). I think it is a good presentation as works as a recap of AQA New Spec AS topics as well. The powerpoint has external links to many news and newspaper articles related to its content to extend the information if needed. I hope you find this useful. Thank you very much. Paula

I made this powerpoint to introduce the cultural topic about Easter (La Semana Santa) in Spanish for A-Levels and AS students. It includes some slides with explanations and a vocabulary game at the end. There is also a worksheet that I made in order to follow better the lesson and complete the tasks there meanwhile listening to the cultural explanations. The vocabulary is quite complex but very interesting for Sixth form students.

Cultural lesson about my hometown’s big celebration: Las fallas, includes clips, a song and lots of explanations in Spanish about this popular Celebration declared Patrimonio Inmaterial de la Humanidad in 2017. It goes well with the AS/ALevels Spanish AQA topic “El Patrimonio Nacional”. It is also a very good powerpoint if you want to do a cultural lesson with KS3 or KS4 students, however the texts are in TL and would need some translation. I have a KS3 version of the presentation created, please, ask if interested :). I hope you enjoy such a colourful display! Paula PD: I have attached a video about Spanish festivities as a starter , so the file might be a bit heavy, however it also has the videos embeded in the ppt notes.
