Lesson 1: ¿Adónde fuiste de vacaciones? (1)
1. Read through the parallel text from the new sentence builder. You need to aim to be able
 to recognise and produce this level of language, without support, by the end of this unit of
 work (8 lessons + extra vocabulary learning + revision). Use different colours to highlight:
 a. words you already know from previous units of work
 b. cognates and near-cognates
 c. verbs in the preterite tense (in bold)
 Desafío (challenge): can you work out which past tense verbs are irregular and
 therefore don’t follow the verb formation rules?

 you read it out loud and keep up with the recording?

3. Familiarise yourself with the words from the sentence builder below, which you can use to
 build answers from the first question on the parallel text. Start by playing the ‘Y8 Spanish
 – Mis Vacaciones SB1’ soundfile from ClassCharts and practising your pronunciation by
 repeating the Spanish after the teacher.

4. After practising the correct pronunciation, choose at least three of the following tasks
 which will help you familiarise yourself with the vocabulary from the sentence builder:
 • Write down the Spanish and English for six sentences you have built using the
 Sentence Builder above.
 • Build six sentences, then time 20 seconds to look at each one before trying to re-
 write the sentence from memory (as in the ‘frog copying’ activity we do in class).
 • Play ‘Trapdoor’ or ‘Mind Reading’ to guess a sentence someone else has built (this
 could be someone in your family (they don’t need to know Spanish, as they can use
 the Sentence builder), or a friend in your class (over a phone call or video-chat).
 • Make flashcards or a Look-Cover-Write-Check sheet to learn key words.
 • You can also learn the words on Quizlet (see link/QR code on the front of this
 booklet).
5. Test yourself! Using the grid on the following page, time yourself three minutes – how many
 phrases can you fill in (Spanish to English)? Desafío: do at least one more task from the
 list above before testing yourself on the second grid (English to Spanish).
