Spanish 2 for Schools – Lesson 10
We are learning to… Express our likes and dislikes and ask people what they like.
In this animation, you will learn some food vocabulary in Spanish, and to say what food you like or don’t like. Enjoy!
Listen to this fun song and try to sing along! Can you write down the names of the fruit mentioned in the song and their translation in English?
Once you are familiar with the song, form a line and dance with the class! Note that every fruit has its own dance move. Also, why not create extra lyrics and new dance moves? Check the PowerPoint below to find out new vocab about fruit!
In this animation, you will learn how to ask someone what they like and discover a few more useful phrases linked to likes and dislikes.
In this animation, you will discover the origins of paella, one of the most popular dishes in Spain.
