I have been putting together resources to teach about character / describing people. Inevitably this leads to some work on SER + ESTAR. Attached to this post is the PowerPoint with the resources leading up to the point where I tackle the two verbs for TO BE. My aim is for the students to be able to put together a description of a friend + what a good friend should be like. Included is a cartoon from Quino which I want the students to explain to me – that will be a challenge to them! I had considered doing something with the Toy Story song and the Simpsons clip (videos below), but they aren’t the ideal clips I was looking for and I really should push on with the topic. I have not had a great deal of luck finding any decent YouTube resources to support this part of the topic. Hope this post is of use to someone!

Spanish Teaching Resources and Ideas 
Thank you for sharing such wonderful resources. Often I look at your resources which are really helpful in themselves and also for giving excellent ideas which I adapt according to my students. I know it’s such a naff word but my students really do find them engaging. Do you also use textbooks? I would really appreciate your expereince/judgement – we’ve been using Mira – moving on to Viva. Have you used Viva?
Hi. We don’t follow textbooks. We sue them to supplement our SoW. We have also been using MIRA + are moving to VIVA.
