Year 7 Spanish
Booklet 2: Half-Term 2, Lessons 1-12
Mi ciudad y mi pueblo
This booklet covers content for the whole Autumn 2 term. Answers &
instructions for all tasks are provided (answers are at the end of the
booklet).
Guidance for completing MFL work:
The work inside the booklets on ClassCharts/in school reception contain enough work to
cover the 14 hours of lesson time you would have had in this first half-term, it is therefore
expected that you spend a similar amount of time completing the tasks. This can be done in
small chunks and/or with regular breaks.
The content of the booklets is based on activities/tasks from your lessons. This means that
you should be familiar with the different types of tasks set by your teacher. Within each
booklet are instructions (in English) for every task that you have to complete.
If you struggle to understand a task, please see below a list of useful websites to help you
with vocabulary & grammar:
- https://www.wordreference.com (online dictionary)
- https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/levels/z98jmp3 (grammar & vocabulary)
- https://quizlet.com/topic/languages/ (vocabulary learning)
All answers to the tasks are at the back of the booklets provided. This means that once you
have completed certain tasks, you can mark these yourself to see where you have made good
progress and which areas you may need to revise.
Remember - you do not need to print out the work - you could just read it on screen and work
in an exercise book or on lined paper. There are also printed copies of the booklets available
to pick up from school if anyone cannot access them on a screen.
Please complete this work by the deadline set on ClassCharts by your teacher. After this,
revision and assessment work for this half-term will be uploaded onto ClassCharts. If you
have any questions about the work, please don't hesitate to get in touch via the Contact page
on the school website.
