I like to use video for listening activities wherever possible although finding suitable material can be difficult. The following link has short videos on a variety of GCSE topics – www.youtube.com/user/MyRoeSpanishCorner. I presume that the YouTube site is linked to the University of Roehampton. I like the fact that they also provide transcripts of the extract below each video. Below is one extract I will be using in order to reinforce use of the conditional in Spanish.

Hi!
Thanks for your fantastic presentation today. I was the mad person at the beginning who asked you to take a look at my blog. Sorry for being pushy! I love your blog and have used many of your resources – they are so good! Thanks again and I am sure you will have inspired more of my Department to be using your ideas and resources.

Good morning! Thanks for the helpful link. Have you seen this site? http://www.laits.utexas.edu/spe/ They also use video and provide transcripts, but my favorite part for novice learners is that for each topic there is a “simplified” example. In this sample, they speak much more deliberately and the language has been scripted. In the other samples there is a diverse pool of native speakers from a wide range of countries.
Hi. Thanks for that link. It looks great.
