Teacher videos: Adverbs in Spanish

This Spanish Kapow teacher video supports a grammar-focused lesson in which pupils learn how to form and use adverbs in Spanish. Pupils begin by exploring how adverbs can modify adjectives and verbs, for example, “very interesting” or “write carefully.” The lesson builds on prior understanding of the English suffix -ly by showing the Spanish equivalent: -mente. Pupils follow a clear three-step process – identify the adjective, convert it to its feminine form, then add -mente.

Teacher skills video: Using sentence builders

This Kapow teacher video supports a lesson that introduces sentence builders as a key strategy for delivering comprehensible input in the language classroom. Based on Stephen Krashen’s theory, comprehensible input refers to language that is just beyond pupils’ current level, yet still accessible. Sentence builders provide this support by combining familiar vocabulary with new elements in a clear and structured format.
