Secondary Spanish festivals La Tomatina + Pluperfect tense

By MFL LAB

Engage your students with this 2 pages worksheet, focused on the renowned Spanish festival, La Tomatina. Designed for secondary Spanish students, this resource includes a reading comprehension passage about Nico’s unforgettable experience at the Tomatina festival. Here’s what it includes:

  • Reading comprehension: Students answer questions in Spanish based on Nico’s story, building skills in understanding authentic-style texts.

  • Grammar practice: A focused section on the pluperfect tense (pretérito pluscuamperfecto) helps students understand the tense and gain confidence in using this advanced tense to describe actions that happened prior to other past events.

  • Vocabulary and Writing practice: Key vocabulary and phrases from the text are reinforced with translation exercises, promoting retention of useful language structures related to festivals and personal experiences.

The final writing task encourages students to write about their own hypothetical festival experience, using a mix of the pluperfect and preterite tenses, opinions, and connectors. This task is an excellent way to prepare students for the writing paper of the exam while allowing them to explore cultural themes.

This worksheet can support lessons on cultural topics, serve as effective exam prep, or offer meaningful cover work for independent study.

Spanish Authentic Listening Activity with Comprehension Questions Medellín

By Specialty Spanish

Authentic listening activities for Spanish class can be so hard to find!  We want our students to practice their listening skills but we don’t want to spend an hour searching for a good video!  This YouTube video is about Medellín, Colombia, known as the city of eternal spring!  A young person takes us around his city and highlights some of the best tourist attractions.  To check comprehension, students will answer questions as they watch. Students will make comparisons and discover similarities and differences between their own experience and the speaker’s experience in Chile.   An answer key is also included!

Are your students interested in spring-themed activities?  Maybe this bundle is right for you!  It includes group writing challenges, speaking or writing task cards, a speaking game and this listening activity-all with a spring theme!

  • A link to a YouTube video about Medellín, Colombia.  The speaker is a young person to whom our high school students can relate (3 minutes)
  • A print or post comprehension activity
  • Questions in the comprehension activity are in English.  I did this on purpose so that students cannot simply copy what they hear (and potentially not understand what it means)
