Hey there, Joyful Journey Makers! Ready to get your students talking (and not just about TikTok)? Let’s dive into my FREE Interview Worksheet, a simple, interactive activity designed to get your students speaking Spanish and getting to know their classmates all in one go. This resource makes practicing conversational skills fun and natural, and it gives students an easy win by learning to ask and answer the two key questions: “¿Cómo te llamas?” (What’s your name?) and “¿Cómo estás?” (How are you?).
So, why is it FREE? Because we all love a good freebie that makes learning fun and effective! I’ve used this activity with my students, and let me tell you—they absolutely love it. It gets them up, moving, and speaking Spanish confidently. And you, dear teacher, get to sit back (just a little) while they do the work!
Why the ¿Cómo estás? Interview Worksheet Works for Language Learning
Here’s why this FREE interview activity works like a charm in the classroom:
How to Use the ¿Cómo estás? Interview Worksheet in Your Classroom
Here are a few ways to get the most out of this fun, interactive resource:
- Classmate Bingo: Turn the interview worksheet into a mini-competition. Set a timer and see who can ask eight classmates “¿Cómo te llamas?” and “¿Cómo estás?” first, marking their answers in the appropriate columns. This keeps the activity fast-paced and exciting, turning it into a mini race!
- Daily Warm-Up: Use this worksheet as a daily warm-up or weekly check-in. Let students ask different classmates how they’re feeling and report back. It’s a quick way to build conversational practice into your routine while helping students start each day with real communication.
- Peer Interviews and Sharing: Have students work in pairs, taking turns interviewing each other using the worksheet. Then, ask them to introduce their partner to the class based on their responses. It adds an extra layer of speaking practice and encourages active listening!
- Small Group Conversations: After students complete the worksheet, have them form small groups and share what they learned about their classmates. This turns the activity into a group discussion, encouraging group dynamics and reinforcing the vocabulary they’ve practiced.
- Classroom Reflection: After the activity, gather the class for a reflection session. Ask students what they learned about their peers and how it felt to use the phrases in Spanish. This reflection reinforces their understanding and helps build a supportive classroom community.
