What do teachers say about this resource? (10088)
Absolutely brilliant, well done. A very thoughtful and thorough resource, clearly many hours have been invested here, enhorabuena! I really like the structure, how it builds up gradually, starting with introduction to vocabulary. It covers all the necessary topics and provides opportunities for students to work on a number of key skills. Matching topic areas with vocabulary or definitions/synonyms is an excellent idea. The gap fill tasks allow students to focus on their comprehension skills and use key words in context. The multiple choice comprehension questions allow for re-reading and are easy to mark.
I think it is a brilliant resource with lots of great activities for A level Spanish students: translations, writing, reading and grammar exercises etc. It is a very complete resource.
In general I love the vocabulary sections, in which students have to find the definition of some key words, such as the ones on page 19.
I like also the reading comprehension questions, such as the one on page 20, in which students have to correct certain statements by analysing a text given. I think this is very good practice for the reading. The translation activities are also good, such as the one on the Franco dictatorship on page 36.
Great practice for students to gain confidence for the actual A level Spanish exams
A brilliant resource! Well done!! Very thorough and all facts researched in detail. Well structured, excellent focus on key skills, gradual build up (from vocab to grammar to writing/ translating), tackles the grammatical areas students struggle with the most. I like the fact that the tasks can be incorporated into lessons as assessments or set as homework. I like the context and content is up to date, good answers provided on the suggested tasks, differentiated, appropriate topic choices, making it easier to incorporate within SoW. There are a number of tasks around the same texts so students have an opportunity to consolidate knowledge, there is sufficient complexity and range of grammatical structures, some tasks are open ended which are more demanding on the thinking skills. Many tasks are in line with A Level exam styles. I like the fact that they have to summarise information, which they really struggle with, and is clearly guided with the number of points requires. I love how the examples in the grammar points are fully relevant to the topic discussed.
Very thorough and well produced resource, which will save hours of preparation and ensure systematic independent revision.
It focusses on those key areas of grammar in context that often separate the good from the excellent students. The activities are varied whilst always relevant.
It encourages them to take responsibility for their own learning. It also enables them to see how the somewhat vague topics on the specification may be assessed in a formal examination.

It is clear, well-organised and spot-on in terms of topics. I can use it for additional practice and consolidation of what we cover during lessons. Students working from home can work at their own pace. It is so well-aligned to the topics we are covering, while giving students valuable practice in the skills they need to develop. This is a really good addition to a course-book and perfectly aligned to the Edexcel specification.

I cannot wait to see the end product, well done, lots of hard work and thinking has gone into this! It's well structured, has a good range of topics, and it tackles the grammatical areas students struggle with the most. I like the fact that the tasks can be incorporated into lessons as assessments or set as homework.
Excellent range of tasks covering all topics... it consolidates vocab and structures learnt in the topic
