Last night I posted a video about Spanish table manners from Ben and Marina. Here is another video from Ben and Marina to learn and/or review Spanish fruit and vegetables:

As well as the video, you can get the full list of vocabulary on Ben and Marina’s website. I thought that after having watched and talked about the two videos, students could work in groups and set a Spanish table to then pretend to have a meal. They would use the vocabulary and expressions in the videos such as:

• ¡Pásame la sal/el aceite, por favor!
• ¿Dónde está mi servieta?
• Quiero un manzana/ un poco de ensalada…
• ¡Estoy mas sana que una manzana!
• ¡Tampoco te pases!
• Están super ricos/malos…

For the plates, glasses and cutlery, the teacher could bring some disposable ones. As for the food, the teacher could either bring plastic toy food (I know I can borrow some from the primary teachers at my school!) or students could draw some. I posted the resources and activities on Spanish curriculum wiki under grade 9 and 10 IGCSE topic “eating and drinking”.

What do you think? Do you do a similar activity with your Spanish students?
