Looking for a fun, modern and engaging way to bridge the gap between Year 9 and GCSE Spanish? The Why Not Languages Influencer Project is a fully immersive 6-week project designed to build confidence, develop key GCSE skills and get students genuinely excited about languages.
Students join the fictional Why Not Languages Influencer Agency and create their own influencer identity in Spanish. Across the project, they will:
- create social media profiles
- describe photos
- go viral
- attend a brand trip to Coachella
- meet Bad Bunny
- discuss future plans
- and finally create their own 60-second brand deal TikTok in Spanish!
Throughout the project, students practise and develop:
- reading comprehension
- translation
- listening
- dictation
- phonics
- speaking
- describing a photo
- analysing a model text
- extended writing
- and key GCSE grammar including the present, preterite and future tenses
The project includes:
- 53 page student booklet
- 6 weeks of ready-to-use content
- GCSE-style exam skills throughout
- sentence builders and scaffolded support
- peer assessment opportunities
- model answers
- knowledge organisers
- speaking preparation
- extension/challenge tasks for higher students
