This mat is for those studying La Casa de BA. in the new Spanish Alevel.
It includes quotes, connectives, opinion phrases, intensifiers, idioms, subjunctive phrases and if clauses. Also, verbs that are followed by a preposition. I have tried to select verbs and idioms that apply to the play so that students can improve their essays.
It would be useful for the old curriculum A2 students too.
At the back, there are verb tables with all the regular conjugations to help students conjugate the verbs.
Grammar revision mat for the preterite tense that includes all of the irregulars at the back. Ideal for Alevel students of Spanish. This is my newest version of the mat. At the back it includes: the dirty 11 (tener, saber, poner, poder…), -UCIR, -UIR, -IR stem changing verbs and E-Y (creer, caer…).
It comes with the DISPLAY for the dirty 11 and the tableta de chocolate; (six pack -ser, ir, dar, ver, decir, traer) which we have in class at the front and students can use it to double check their irregulars.
Includes my latest updated version of the mat.
Includes a practice assessment for students to practise at home or a lesson before the actual assessment.
2 versions of the assessment provided. You can either save one version for resits or if you have lots of students and not enough room to separate them, then you can give out both and alternate them.
This is a mat that contains all key grammar aspects studied in Alevel.
Indicative tenses
Subjunctive tenses
Ser / Estar
Por / Para
Gerunds
Passives
If Clauses
V + prepositions
And lots more!
My students absolutely love it and have it with them all the time. It has become their most valuable reference guide for grammar.
Please, note that the STARS only appear in page 1 and 4. Don’t print those pages. Print pages 2 and 3 and you won’t have the stars.
Also, this is an A3 mat so I would recommend to print with A3 printing settings.
Pack of resources for the future tense. It includes the revision mat that has the Simple Future on one side and the “IR A” future on the other side. It also includes an Irregular verbs display with the 12 irregulars (tener, saber, poner, poder…). My students find these type of mats very helpfull since they summarise everything they need to know for their tests.
Finally, I have also included a revision poster of the 12 irregular verbs. Ideal for the new GCSE curriculum but also for the Alevel curriculum.
All the documents are in pdf and word but you will need to install the fonts I have used for the word versions.
I have added a modified version I made for a Year 7 class.
¡Al fin acabé!
I have finally finished putting together oral questions to practice for the speaking.
This is a 26 pages booklet with a few hundred questions that students can use to practice but also to research some topic areas.
First couple of pages also include info about the oral examination and some tips.
And then, there is a bank of idioms that students can use with translations and examples of the idioms so that they can see how they would be used. They are all grouped per topic but can be used for lots of other topics.
This is a VOCABULARY booklet with HIGH FREQUENCY vocabulary that I have noticided is used in the Listening and Reading exam (AQA).
What I have done is to go through past papers and annotate the words and categories of words that tend to repeat. For example, connectives, nationalities, crime, poverty, infinitives, numerals, jobs, etc. I have then added extra words so that there is a full list. For example, in the section of “jobs” I have added words like científico, periodista, astronauta, hombre de negocios which have appeared in previous papers but you will find a total of 2 slides full of vocab for jobs.
This booklet is a revision tool for students. Teachers can use it to set regular vocab learning and test students as well (it has a scores section at the back).
This booklet prints really well in A5.
The 5 topics included are:
Immigration
Racism
Living together
The young
Monarchies and dictatorships
These are the vocab lists my students use to learn the topic vocab. They also have these lists on Memrise. Please, leave your email when doing a review and I will email you the memrise links :)
Here is a mat I have made to revise those tricky words like pronouns, demonstratives, relative pronouns and other bits that students find very tricky.
Hopefully students will be able to improve their translation skills after completing the series of exercises I have prepared in the sheet.
The sheet includes about 7 exercises (3 pages) and the answers for the teacher.
This is a 21 pages booklet with all the preterite irregulars (dirty 11, six pack, spelling change, ucir, uir, IR stem changing verbs, double vowel ones.
It includes lots of practice and translations for students.
Please download Candara and Helsinki fonts if you want to use the word document.
This booklet is ideal for Y12 but could also be used as retrieval for Y13.
Translations include vocab from Family and Idols.
I have put together 3 written mock papers for my students who have studied Pan's Lab.
They include 3 translation exercises following the AQA structure of the specification paper they have provided.
3 Pan's Lab papers.
Mark scheme for the translations and the translation grid to convert it into marks.
If you like it, please leave a review :)
This resource includes:
-a match up activity in which students have to match up key infinitives that can be used as a starter.
-a card sort game (differentiated for Low and High Ability students)
-a carrousel reading activity with 4 different texts. You can group students and each group can read a different text.
-a glossary worksheet to complete by students and another one that comes already completed.
-a plenary activity using Twitter.
These resources can take 2 or 3 lessons to complete.
Two posters, one for ser and another one for estar.
We have them near the board in class and students find it helpful when completing translations in A2. They can all have a quick look when encountering the verb “to be”.
This resource is a gameboard for the end of the year for AS students or for the beginning of the year for A2 students. The aim is to revise grammar and practise a bit the speaking.
Students work in pairs or in groups and roll the dice to get to the FIN square.
If the get a 6 when rolling the dice, they stay where they are and have to say 6 connectives.
One person in the group writes the connectives that are being said down so that they avoid repeating them. This will force them to think about more connectives.
Alevel game boards for the present and the preterite tenses. It includes all categories of irregulars.
When students fall in a square with 2 or 3 verbs, they conjugate the verbs given (Yo canto, tú cantas...). If they fall in an orange square, that is a speaking questions and they speak for a minute.
For the rest of La Oca rules, you will find a slide with the explanations.
Encourage your students to use more target language with this display :)
