work sheet to extend on the topic of school subjects at GCSE level. Multiple choice and questions in Spanish. Could be used for lower years as well.

Students use the photos (the free file) to match up with the descriptions on this sheet. They decide who they are what their names are, there are various correct answers but the students need to recognise the correct family members to be able to match them. I print the photos onto A3 and then the other sheet, I either allow them to copy or cut and stick, depending on age range and ability.

Practice of people in the family and possessive adjectives. Students need to identify the vocabulary to do with family and then think about to whom they refer: e.g. the father of my father is my ......? The students then need to practise possessive adjectives - my, your (singular) and his/her.

These quick translations can be used at the beginning of a lesson to support GCSE learning of the social problems topic. Fully differentiated at 3 levels to enable access by all students.
