Notes for the teacher: The 2 celeb quotes set the scene for finding out about the World Cup teams – do the students know more about the teams taking part ? Give each student the list of teams in English and each table or group a set of the team names in Spanish. They work as teams to match up the Spanish and English. Then you can talk about which countries speak which languages, particularly Spanish. (KS2 Framework IU3) If you have some more time, you could use the World Cup map worldcup-map.htm to see what students can find out about the Spanish-speaking countries. worldcup-map.htm
El Mundial 2010 I cant wait for the USAs game against Manchester United on Saturday !
El Mundial 2010 I think Barcelona or Milan will win the World Cup !
How much do you know about the teams ? Can you match up the names ?
