Join Alejandro as he presents a game of charades in which two teams of boys and girls act out what they did yesterday. The game involves first choosing a slip of paper from the pot which asks 'What did you do yesterday at?', and then acting it out for the other team members. With the score tied at two points for each team, Alejandro acts out the tie-breaker. This lesson starter relates to the language and themes explored in Unit 19 of the QCDA scheme of work for KS2 Spanish, specifically on the times of day and using the past tense. Shot on location in Cosoleacaque, Veracruz in southern Mexico, the video offers opportunities to develop language skills and intercultural understanding.
