NVQ Spanish

NVQ Spanish Level 2 Resources

I bought the ilanguages Scheme of Work and materials for this course.  This is available to purchase from their website.  Teaching the course for the first time this year and in addition, having a mixed age class of adults and Y10 students, I have made some additional materials.  Rather than PowerPoint I tend to use the IWB with this class.  The class has good access to computers, and there are therefore quite a few activities for independent vocabulary learning and consolidation.  I have used Quizlet for these and they can also be used for homework.  Quizlet is free and the NVQ activities I have made on it are available to all.  If you type in ‘NVQ’ into the search box, it pulls up all those I have made so far.  Finally, as a department we subscribed to Vocab Express earlier this year.  All of our classes have benefitted from this excellent online learning resource, but particularly this one, where an element of competition between the adult and student learners has encouraged a lot of additional learning outside the classroom.

The table below has the resources organised according to the weeks when they are used, in addition to the learning focus or topic.  At present, this seems the best way to organise them, as I continue to create resources as I teach through it.
